Wolfkin

In the four-part work “Waving with my phantom limb”, I deal with the virtual subculture of the Otherkin. These are people who perceive themselves as non-human, but as beings such as elves, wolves or even disembodied constructs such as glitches and galaxies. They have found a place to share their identities, particularly on the social media platform Tumblr and other forums.

In order to transfer the fragile constructs of these identities into an exhibition space, I chose the form of mobiles after extensive research. Each mobile portrays the personality of an Otherkin.

The work was reworked in 2020 and Mosskugel will probably have to be redesigned when purchased and will differ slightly from the photos.

The series includes: Phoenixkin, Galaxykin, Wolfkin and Fishkin
