More information

Detta dubbelbottnade collage har en bakgrund baserat på korallen "Turbinaria mesentherina", från Indiska ocenanen. Samma korall visas i åtta gångers förstoring nedtill på bilden. Tillsammans med äpplen och vad som rimligen symboliserar en äggledare har Nemes skapat ett starkt collage, som möjligen är hans mest utställda verk.
