Kerstin's animals seem  free of everything,

even space & time, placed in an abstract empty

setting. By portraying the animals, Kerstin

concentrates our attention on its singularity.

The animals seem to watch our actions.

Statement
Since my childhood, I’ve been captivated by animals and our relationship

with them. In these times, we rarely focus on details. We lack the patience

to absorb and observe our environment. Instead we distance ourselves from

the realities of our world with distraction and consumption. The disconnect

from nature has left many anesthetized and indifferent to our planet. We

destroy nature to meet our modern consumption needs. Sixty percent of the

Earth’s wildlife has been made extinct since nineteen seventy because of

habitat loss and overexploitation.
 
Nature is not a nice-to-have. It is our only life-support.

We have put it on the market for sale.
