MARIT WOLTERS

Author unknown, drawing of a royal deer hunt, 18th century

The field. It is marked out. The boundary cannot be seen, nothing beyond it may be photographed. Trapped in the field. Where does this boundary come from? It is reminiscent of the way game was hunted in the past: linens are stretched around three sides of an open area. Riders and dogs drive the game into this area. The animals see the cloth as an insurmountable obstacle - they cannot escape any further. They are surrounded and shot by the hunters. If one of the animals does escape, it has "slipped through the fingers" of the hunting party (in German: „durch die Lappen gegangen“).
