    This is a collection of works by Formafantasma, a duo consisting of Italian designers Andrea Trimarchi and Simone Farresin, who are based in Amsterdam, Netherlands. It was published in conjunction with an exhibition held at the National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design (Nasjonalmuseet for kunst, arkitektur og design) in Oslo, Norway, from May to October 2023. This book documents an ongoing project that investigates the history, ecology, and global dynamics of wool harvesting and production.

    The exhibition, comprising artworks, agricultural products, cultural artifacts, photographs, videos, and other materials, suggests that wool is more than just a raw material for design and the textile industry. The domesticated "sheep" as we know it has evolved over hundreds of years. Humans have fed sheep and protected them from predators, and in return, they have obtained wool, a substance with magical properties that profoundly changed the history of humans and animals.

    The central installation of this exhibition is a critical attempt at the diorama display method. Dioramas, commonly used in natural history museums to statically reproduce natural scenes, are here expanded into an installation featuring six life-size replicas of various sheep breeds, carpets made from discarded wool fibers, documents, a film work by Polish photographer Joanna Piotrowska, by-products of the manufacturing process, and various types of organic matter. All elements are presented in parallel to subvert the persistent classifications that separate humans and animals, products and biological matter.
