Khan Academy: Tim Noble and Sue Webster, Dark Stuff, at the British Museum

Curated by ACT

In this video [2:51] Tim Noble and Sue Webster describe themselves as artists of circumstance. Walking through the Egyptian galleries they were inspired as to how to use the mice, shrews and toads they had collected. Curator Neal Spencer highlights the appropriateness of such a display, given that in Ancient Egypt animals were bred, slaughtered and mummified in their millions.
