Using Lascaux and Montespan as models for the cave functioning as a prehistoric temple of spiritual violence and animal sacrifice, a cavern-like environment of sculptural work serves as a backdrop to a sonic ritual involving the impalement of coveted and loved animal/human entities.  Sacrifice is used as a transgressive act to commune with a cosmological otherness through the vertigo of death.
