Sculpture: “Under Siege: Calliphora vs Creophilus”

 Five Calliphorid maggots left their large maggot mass to feed at a small defect that looked especially good to them. They took a great risk leaving the mass, as now they were more at risk from the fierce maggot-eating Creophilus beetles. The sculpture shows the moment just before the beetles attacked.
