    Vitulus Latine Loquitur (The cow speaks Latin-written in Latin) | 2014

This piece is elaborate and finely constructed and the viewer looks for meaning in the intricate lettering written on the leather reading "Vitulus Latine Loquitur". The Latin writing mocks and frustrates the viewer because most people don't read latin and secondly it has no greater meaning other than the cow speaks latin.
