Interactive Hunting Trophies

Hunting Trophies, 2008
Cervus Elaphus Barbarus (North Africa Deer)
Hunting Trophies is a collection of 11 hunting trophies hung on the wall. They feature the most frequent species used in taxidermy for the realization of wall trophies, mainly deer and cat family. Instead of being real taxidermied animals they are chests of modified I-Cybie robots. An infrared sensor allows the robots, each in its own way, to detect the presence but also the movements of visitors. As you approach, the robots turn their heads in your direction, their eyes light up, come too close and the robot suddenly growls. The closer you get, the more aggressive its behaviour.

I do love the way you have framed this specific difficulty plus it does offer us some fodder for thought. Nonetheless, from what I have seen, I simply hope when the actual opinions pile on that men and women keep on issue and in no way start upon a tirade involving the news du jour. Yet, thank you for this exceptional piece and although I do not necessarily go along with it in totality, I value your point of view.
