toy robot dogs by French artist, France Cadet. Trained in fine art and electronics, Cadet buys computer robot dogs from China and reprograms them. Rather like a scientist dissecting a specimen, she cuts these computer animals in half, cuts of their feet and replaces them with the curved legs of a rocking chair, or removing their ears and grafting on her own purpose made fiberglass ears. Rather than begin again by building her own animal, she prefers to mould an perfect something that already exists. In this wasy she is refering to experiments that people have done with animals, taking particular inspriation from the cloning of Dolly the sheep. These dogs make noises and move around. But they don’t bark like normal dogs, they moo like a cow.
