Diorama

Diorama is an installation consisting in four hand-crafted dioramas, each one simulating a different environment. Nine hens lived for a month in the dioramas, which were designed and constructed based on the chickens' plumage. Each scenery was disguised as the animal, reverting the place of visual narrative usually seen on natural science displays. The hens thrived in the exhibition space until activists attacked the work and shut down the show prematurely. Diorama was open to the public on September-October 2011 in Galería Macchina, Santiago.
