During the day, Hauser continues her practice and ongoing work process with the horse, meeting people, making discoveries and intervening in places or participating in events related to her trajectory and desire for change. Along the way, notes, an ongoing series of unique photographs’ and abstract fabric canvases exposed to the elements, have emerged.Īs part of IWPNT, Sandra Hauser and Don Orèo also undertake journeys, staying for short periods in various locations, beginning in Europe. Over the course of the last two years, artist and horse encounter each other, train each other, experience both development and setbacks and thus create a process. The project’s origins lie in the harsh environment of an industrial area in the Rhone Delta, where Sandra Hauser met Don Orèo, a young Cruzado stallion. IWPNT’s genesis and unfolding is closely tied to the co-development of horse and human.

Since then, Hauser has been immersed in the development of a longterm project “I Would Prefer Not To.”

In 2019 Sandra Hauser, gifted with the talent of horse whispering and riding since the age of three, decided to use her personal affinity with these animals in her artistic practice.
