Clastravermis Ecclesumbra
A single mounted centipede specimen displayed against a gothic lancet backdrop, designed to feel like a relic lifted from a shadowed archive.
Set within a hand painted black hoop and mounted on a faux leather ground, the piece draws on ecclesiastical forms and traditional specimen presentation, placing something visceral and natural into a devotional architectural setting.
The name Clastravermis Ecclesumbra translates loosely to “the worm of church shadow.” It is often referred to as The Lancet Burden, a quiet nod to the weight, reverence, and unease the piece carries.
This is a one of a kind specimen, created as a standalone work and intended for wall display.
