They are Lucky to be Bourgeois Hens is a series in which a number of hens are depicted in distinct and elegant poses. The precision and refinement of the drawings contrast with the nature of the support. Objets trouvés, referring to popular tradition and craftsmanship, provide the backdrop and counterpoint to the lightness of the drawings, which represent joyous scenes. The gentrified hens, portrayed in selfimportant and smug poses, are suggestive of themes linked to the gradual loss of knowledge of rural life and the process of gentrification that many Western cities undergo, including Pristina in recent years.
