fish

Description

A fish is a small merchant of life utterly consumed in the great refrigerator of seas and rivers. They prove their existence by swimming, only to find their stage replaced by a plate. Leaving only bones and skin, they silently bear witness to the cunning of our food culture. The claim of freshness is merely an excuse for post-mortem preservation. The moment they reach the table, proof of their freedom is eroded into mere protein.
