Should the sculpture in small or big size?
S.B.: Start with the big size. Your sketch should be in big size, because if you do it in small size and then you want to build the big one and could not success it; it would depress you.
While some parts begin to molder away, new things starts to come into being. (The disappearance and mistakes cause new experiences.)
While some parts are finished, some parts are not finished. (the finished parts are in max. details with hair or nails or etc…, but the rips is still open.)
See the movie Total Recall. There are mutants because there is not enough O2 at the planet. Their bodies have additional or missing parts/organs.

Total Recall
