The complicated relationship we have with nature, ready to oscillate between devotion and destruction, admiration and tension, has always nourished the art of surrounding ourselves with faithful replicas of our need to possess something wild, to furnish our existence with what we tame... The Birds of [Prey] project by American photographer Claire Rosen, offers a new perspective to this tradition with her portraits of live birds, photographed in front of wallpaper.
