I wanted to see something as lowly as a worm occupying the prized prime space of a gallery wall (where ‘only’ exclusively high cultural tastes are displayed). Inspired in parts by Hamlet: “Your fat king and your lean beggar is but variable service – two dishes, but to one table. That’s the end.”
& by Spacehog: “We all end up feeding worms ― one of these days”. An earthworm in three visible segments is seen in numerous scenes of “the Woods/ 恐れ森” (in this same pose).
