Dominant Eye

Both topics, “hunting” and “altruism”, have great potential for criticism and conflict.
Everyone has an opinion on them.


Recently there has been a trend of the healing aspects of slowing down on television there: stressed managers are sent to the woods for a week to camp and relax. In our society you rarely have the opportunity to seclude yourself and simply enjoy the peace and quiet. A TV show showed people fishing: someone caught a very small fish and had to release it according to the rules, because of its size. Before he dropped it into the water, he kissed the fish, even though he knew it couldn’t survive long. This contradictory moment triggered something in me. In order to enjoy something or pursue a hobby like fishing or hunting, humans kill other living things.
