The shape, title, and content of this work are based on the Chinese philosophy of Daoism, which interprets the universe as an entity of male and female elements as well as kindness and evil, heaven and earth, and dark and light worlds. The author combines a perfectly-shaped skull of a wild animal lynx and a beautiful sea shell, spotted with mysterious characters. The composition is arranged in such a way that it looks like an authentic fantastic creature from the mythological pantheon of the sculptor.
