Description
I finally got a decent photo of this, it suffered a bit through 3 house moves, and i finally decided to fix an area in back where water had dropped on it...when i was growing up in Cuba, people leaving the island for the US had a hard time finding luggage items...a black market industry sprung up for making and selling luggage, usually ,sewing together whatever odd pieces of clothes or fabric found. The result were these long duffle bags that resembled caterpillars...this led to the coining of a term for the exiles..."gusanos"... which means "worms"Related content

Not worms.
Just the stage before butterflies.
call them "preludes".

yes!... thank you... that was the irony of it, what started out meant as insult became something else altogether

art is such a teaser, sometimes.
It makes you start somewhere and it leads somewhere else.
