Exhibition: "Capital of the raccoons" at UNI:Lokal

Kassel is known throughout Germany as the capital of raccoons. However, the immigrant wild animals are not liked by everyone in the urban environment. However, with their cute appearance, finely drawn face and delicate paws, the raccoons have many Kassel residents on their side. They have even become the city's advertising medium in many cases.

The photos by Dominik Janoschka and Jan Piecha impressively show how the raccoons have conquered the city as their habitat. The photographers followed the animals from their natural habitat into the illuminated streets of the city to photograph raccoons in the urban environment. The photos open up new perspectives on wild animals and coexistence in human civilization.
