In myths and fantastic tales, beings that can change their own external form are referred to as ‘metamorphs’ or ‘shape-shifters’. But you don’t need to think of the Frog Prince or Harry Potter – people themselves become shape-shifters through their choice and design of clothing, through fashion and their desire for recognition. It is the skin of animals, it is their feathers that he uses and thus intervenes in nature. Stripped of their own skins and furs, the animals also need new clothes. The work initially appears as a cheerfully colourful scene. But in the background, nature, abused by man for his own purposes, appears darkly.
