[ID: A surrealist black-and-white ink piece showing a variety of strange creatures in shifting concrete blocks. Eyeballs are prominent, with many eyeballs rolling around, piling on top of each other in giant eye sockets looking out open 'windows', zippers in the concrete opening to reveal eyeballs, and eye sockets melting on top of each other over the edges of surfaces. In the top left is a shattered window, with a sculpture of a man with tree branches growing out of his head and a stack of three faces looking out. Below them is a concrete line of many windows, with a hybrid dolphin, snake, and terrier animal leaning out of an open window. The window next to that one is shattered, with eyeballs melting out. The dolphin/snake/terrier has one trunk-like arm stuck in a shallow metal channel with water flowing down it. Below that is another window, where several large eyes are looking out as well as a moose with. many small eyes holding an umbrella in their mouth with an eyeball skewered on it. In the middle right of the picture is a protruding concrete block hanging by two chains from another block on top. A door in this block opens and a veiny worm with a large eyeball on the end of it looks to be slithering out. There are two smaller windows over top of this protruding concrete block, one of which is taped up and another of which shows a woman on the sill with the skin of half of her face lifted up to reveal the organs beneath. All of these eyeballs and creatures are staring at a small person standing in the bottom left, who is in turn looking up at them. /end ID]
