When Daniel Malva was 10, he invented a game, in which he gave his own names to everything. The game here is used in another way, that is, he created new images for things. In these polyptychs, he gave new images for constellations and stars. They are each composed of 88 quail eggs (to represent the constellations, using the earth as the point of view), and 48 images of human teeth (to represent the brightest stars in our sky). Each image was named in Latin.
