“ A small hare with red eyes, a little Japanese netsuke sculpture carved out of ivory with eyes inset with amber. I remember seeing it at a museum and being surprised at how convincing and life like its expression and  posture were. A perfect reference of the real thing. . . I wondered what it would be like to recreate the reference, fashion the likeness of the sculpture out of a real rabbit? A strange reanimation - an object made out of a rabbit, imitating a sculpture, imitating a real rabbit ”
