Artist Camille Henrot has premiered her first new film in nearly a decade, titled "In the Veins" (2026), at the newly reopened New Museum in New York. The 35-minute work, which is featured in the exhibition "New Humans," explores the intersection of domestic caretaking and the global climate crisis. Through Henrot's signature associative editing style, the film juxtaposes scenes of children growing up with footage from wildlife rehabilitation centers, highlighting the cognitive dissonance of raising children surrounded by animal imagery while facing mass extinction.
