The central theme of the work revolves around the intricate relationship between human bodies and animal hides, primarily bovine hides. The series discusses the interplay between the concept of bodies (human bodies) and hides (animal skins) in a symbolic and metaphorical manner, exploring themes of personal identity, social structure, and transformation. The hides represent both the literal hides of animals and also carry a metaphorical significance in relation to the societal and personal aspects under discussion.
