I'm reminded of a quote in Annie Hall:

"Sex with you is a Kafkaesque experience".

Hmmmmm... neither of the two non-human animals featured (spider and scorpion) are actually bugs... what gives?

Would love to see bigger/high res versions of the work - pointers as to where to look?

As asked before, does anyone know the original location of these beautiful ads? Adrants, can you give the location?

I apologize. I have not been able to locate full size versions.
