'Chronicles of Extinction'

by Kirsten Palz

Changing Room presents 'Chronicles of Extinction', a text-based documentation of serial individual works of 12 members each of an extinct species, divided by genus and further classifications. The video work `Probes of Extinction 2022` shows biological details and characteristics of this extinct species. Skin, leaf, flower, plumage, bone structure, extremities, fur and the like are extracted and displayed. This detailed look at elements of extinct animals and plants underlines the loss of a differentiated part of the living world.
