Featuring the artist's signature juxtapositions cut carefully from old magazines preceding ironic composition, 'Shy Wild' sees the artist explore the relationship between mostly wild animals and humans with a note on social media. “Having grown up on a remote farm north of Otjiwarongo and now living in London, it continually amazes me how little respect, fear or understanding most people have of wild animals,” says Lacheiner-Kuhn. “We as humans displaced, tamed and treat animals as our accessories and in recent years, they have become a go-to for social media likes.” “The increase of technology and screen-based social interaction contribute to our alienation from the wild and nature,” she says. “Also with globalisation and people being able to travel more freely, there is that constant want/need to out-do your social circle and selfies/photographs with wild animals in exotic places are top of the list for many westerners.” Housing these ruminations in somewhat galactic glittering circles, Lacheiner-Kuhn recycles, remixes and appropriates images and materials to create new worlds entirely by steady, scalpel-wielding hand.

Namibia
Anne Lacheiner-Kuhn was born in Otjiwarongo (“the place where the fat cattle grazes” in Otjiherero), Namibia in 1983. Raised on a remote farm by a Namibian mother and a German father, she grew up with children of Damara, Herero and Ovambo tribes. These formative years created a deep connection with the soil and a profound sense of belonging to the land and unity with its inhabitants. Her favourite toys growing up were a knife, a rope, matches – building the foundation for her knack of “making” (woodwork and metal work). Anne’s work encompasses a multitude of practices including installations, video work, photography and collages. Conceptually, she engages with discourse surrounding identity, collective and individual memory, sexuality and history.
