(Warning: These photographs are NSFW, for the most part.) Photographer Miru Kim has unveiled a new photo series, and earlier this week explained to us, "I toured industrial hog farms and it was quite intense." She even provided video of the experience which you can watch below... it is, to use Kim's word, intense, and much less tranquil than the photographs (though not quite Hannibal).
Kim's new installation, The Pig That Therefore I Am, opens on March 24th at DOOSAN Gallery (533 West 25th Street), and will run through April 23rd.
