Tracey Solomon | Rattenfänger 

 

09 May – 14 June 2025

Special opening event 5.30pm Friday 09 May

All welcome. Free

“Rattenfänger (translated in English to rat catcher) is based on the Germany folklore of the pied pier, who hypnotised and lured rats to their death. The exhibition explores the moral struggle of exterminating critters as an animal lover. 

Delving into the conscience decisions we make where the sensible and practical path is taken in opposition to a romanticised one. Where the heart is suppressed, an essential part of the human soul."
