The hen, domesticated animal since always, generous food producer, generaly sees itself placed in the back of the garden or in battery cages. Removed from its usual context, the hen coop turns into a piece of furniture. Within a natural vegetation decor without any fences, the hen is free to move and thus becomes a full member of the family. Germaine raises a question about domesticity in human habitat. By proposing a close cohabition with the animal, the merger of two territories implies a new way of living.
