The communication between the falconer and his two birds aroused my interest.
A dialogue between domestication and trust.
I wanted to deal more with the subject of hunting and the relationship between bird and man. Birds and humans are closely interwoven historically. The bird embodies the human longing for freedom and weightlessness. Falconhat is a series of six falconcaps tailored to fit the human head. They function as objects, but also carry the potential of performative activation. The performative photo work How to become a bird plays with the image of the raptor in human appearance.

des jagenden Falken.
