About the Photographer
Daniel Gebhart de Koekkoek is an Austrian photographer and director based... in Vienna and Berlin. His most recognized project, Jumping Cats, captures house cats mid-air in their home environments. Shot without digital manipulation, the images were created through weeks of patient, trust-building sessions with each cat. His approach relies on real-time observation, allowing animals to move naturally within familiar spaces.
The series draws on jumpology, a method developed by Philippe Halsman to reveal authenticity through motion. Referencing Halsman’s Dalí Atomicus, Koekkoek replaces the artist with ordinary cats—presenting them as unintentional performers, suspended between instinct and art.
