“What does it feel to see the imprints of a child’s feet put side by side with imprints of foxes’ and hares’ paws and deer hooves? In my awareness of the anthropocene, “the imprint of a human foot in sand” has long exceeded its sheer image.”  Iris Häussler

Iris Häussler created a relief showing imprints of a human child walking. This relief was integrated into the display of imprints of animals: a fox, a hare and a deer in the Natural History wing of the Kunsthaus Glarus, Switzerland.
