‘FISHING IS NOT HUMAN(E)’ in DAILY ECHO
A controversial art installation and protest went ahead on Sunday despite calls to cancel it.
Artist Stephanie Lane of Speciesism.WTF premiered her work Fishing is NOT Human(e) on Sandbanks beach.
The installation ‘demonstrated the suffering of fish caught in a net’ by depicting humans in a similar experience.
This, the artist said, was to instil critical thinking on speciesism and it aimed to encourage understanding of the ‘pain and suffering caused to trillions of sentient beings by the fishing industry’.
