Eternal Salivation plays on the iconic image of Noah’s Ark. In recent events of floods and other natural and man-made disasters, the idea of survival and salvation comes to the fore. This version challenges the idealized allegory by introducing human tendencies like greed and gluttony- Salvation becomes Salivation.
Plants are represented in various woods as is a wide range of animals (Pig, cow, emu, lama, buffalo, turkey, ostrich, lizard, snails, sea horses, shark, tuna, sea cucumber, and many others).
