Image: Suzanna Zak, The slugs belong to the purely terrestrial order Stylommatophora, an order that has shown wide adaptive radiation and has exploited a large number of habitats on land. The mollusc shell is here reduced to a few calcareous hanules as in Arion empiricorum, 2021. C-prints, found print, lead-free solder, glass, artist frame. The background image depicts cement with breakthroughs of grass pushing through. In the upper left corner is a faded found print of an orange sea creature. In front of the image is glass that appears to have been shattered and then soldered back together. Both the print and glass are contained in a brown artist frame. Photo courtesy of Prairie.
