		In five short video sequences Kim Dotty Hachmann gives an unusual and fascinating glimpse of the animal. The sequences reduce our metaphoric hints toward the animal sphere to nudity. In burrow I the unusual animal is lying on the ground. She is preg- nant. The same picture is copied and placed the wrong way round, mirrored as a shiny doublelayer over the original. She awakens; lustily she is noisily licking her own phantasmatic body until it dis- appears. As if to ward off she sends a gaze out of the picture only to sluggishly fall asleep again. The game repeats itself and - in a converted position - comes back to the starting point. Extract from the text by Ursula Panhans-Bühler
