About the Artwork:

“I love animals. I also have a strange fascination with rats, especially in my work. They are easy to work with because they are small, cute and versatile, but at the same time they evoke fear and anxiety. In this piece, I was hoping to make a visual statement with the repetition of rats.” – Hanna Jaeun
