Year of the Horse

Same raincoat, new head. A rubber horse mask turns the Cogiendo palos watcher into the character of a 2014 calendar: the animal that carried people now does the things that replaced it — the bicycle, the motorbike, the water pump — clumsily and with total commitment.

Someone in a horse mask and red raincoat hides behind a mossy beech

The horse walks a forest track with a staff it has picked up

The horse runs across a park behind a gate signed “Beware of the bull”

The horse works an old green water pump

A hand flips a dandelion in a frying pan beside the horse mask's muzzle

The horse, in a hi-vis vest with an L-plate, rides a bicycle through a snowy show-jumping arena

The horse leans on a stone gatepost holding its own horseshoe

The horse plays bass standing on a motorbike by a lough
