Mouse Palace

HD 11 min, © Hund & Horn 2010

For Mouse Palace, a 1:10 scale model of an existing apartment was built from food, and made available to mice as living space. The rodents made themselves at home in their new habitat and soon began to eat it up. The process of decay was accompanied by fierce territorial battles between two males. Mouse Palace is the continuation of Hund & Horn’s Living Space Series, which includes Tomatoheads, Dropping Furniture and Apnea.


The content of the series is the depiction of human existence under absurd conditions. In the case of Mouse Palace, mice take the place of humans.
