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:
hunting ground I, II and III. burrow I and II. Covering her sex,
breasts and head with pieces of sumptuous fur, the artist is
rather marking the natural fierceness than civilised bashfulness.

In hunting ground I she is hissing and fletching her teeth furiously
at an imaginary intruder. The alien body and gaze are erased by
a fast zoom to the restriction of the picture plane.
