In 1996, television publicizes the news of a disease that affects cows, bringing them to death. This fact in a few days has a central place in the mass media information. Carol Rama, however, is interested by other aspects: the suffering and agony of the animal, the poses it takes, the obsessiveness of irrepressible movements. The animal and the woman, the madness of the cow and the individual state towards which Rama does not stop addressing, seem to be joining on a fragile threshold, without finding a balance and which remains in the condition of an identity oscillation. The contribution focuses on the presence of the animal in the work of Carol Rama and especially in the nineties, analyzing how the seduction for the disease of the animal reveals the gaze of a woman sensitive to many issues of the most recent feminist theories.
