This work was also made while I was on the exchange program in the US. Pennsylvania is an area which is extremely rich in fossils, and this inspired me to make my own fossil fragments as negative reliefs in slate. I arranged these pieces (including eyeglasses, hands, and underwear) within a chalk circle on a wall. This referred to Leonardo's drawing on perfect human proportions.
