Cocoles

Cocoles for my daughter and me are snails and we have with them
a private story of love. They are beautiful in many ways, almost perfect in their
conjunction of the abstract and the organic; exquisite in their shells and sensual
in their softness. They live a difficult life and die in an act of love... what greater
reason can there be for them to have a place in my work?
