Aurochs are the great ancestors of cattle today, roaming the earth with vast land to eat and maneuver through. These giant bovines would have lived a completely different life than current cattle of the twenty-first century. Auroch Meets Calf invites the viewer to question a space of communication between these two generations of animal. They would have similarities such as their eyesight, almost panoramic and dichromatic vision, reasons for the wide landscape, void of red depicted. Their conversation of life would differ greatly and leave a blatant finger pointed at the species responsible.
