Patricia Piccinini's "We Are Family"
What if we someday got to the stage where we could make weird monsters - hybrids of two completely different animals? Would they have unique human qualities, such as reasoning and conscience? They would unlikely be able to lead a happy or normal life, as they share characteristics from two animals (in the case of Piccinini's sculpture, dog and human) yet they are neither and so would be shunned by both species; regarded as an abomination.
