Kendra Haste's exhibition, 'Big Bad Wolf,' showcases her life-size wire sculptures of various wild animals, underscoring their essence without sentimentality. This is her first solo display in Germany and features local wildlife like wolves and boars. Haste explores themes of conservation and the impact of human actions on nature, drawing connections to our shared responsibility for the environment. Her prior work at the Tower of London includes permanent sculptures reflecting historical animals in a royal menagerie, further exemplifying her dedication to bridging artistry with ecological consciousness.
"I try to capture the living, breathing model in a static 3D form and convey its emotional essence without slipping into sentimentality or anthropomorphism."
"This is about how we see the natural world-how we've tried to shape it, and what we've lost in the process."
