Catfish

€199.52

In the summer of 2025, at Brombachsee, a catfish was gunned down by German police—shot multiple times under the pretense of it being “too large” and “aggressive.” The footage spread like rot, sparking a quiet fury. What seemed like absurdity became symbol: an innocent, voiceless creature executed without reason. In the catfish’s slack body, people saw every unpunished act of police violence, every silent victim. Der Wels became a specter—no longer a fish, but a grim emblem of state cruelty, stitched into graffiti, whispered through clenched teeth. A symbol not of absurdity, but of the violence lurking beneath order.
