Meeting at eye level is neither a question of height nor a question of type or species. The series “Walking with loved ones” uses simple backgrounds to focus on the value we place on different people and animals. Instead of lap dogs, so-called “farm animals” are taken for walks: goats, sheep and pigs. They are also intelligent and sensitive creatures and the division into farm animals and pets is exposed as purely arbitrary. Carina Klaus’s people appear diverse: men and women as well as a non-binary person.
Carina Klaus completed her vocational training as a stage painter at the Schauspielhaus in Düsseldorf from 2017 to 2020. Since 2021 she has been studying at the University of Fine Arts in Essen.
