Beyond the spiral spreading of the ammonite fossil drawing, a stratified world view is revealed in the archaeology of historical strata. The image of the ammonite conceals a multi-generational memory, like a "brief history of time," symbolizing durability and evolution. Metaphorically, one may think of a series of palimpsests, parchment scrolls in which the new is layered over the ancient, by now blurred and effaced. "Scrolls of the Now," generated by contemporary photographic means, which furnish observation points of the geo-philosophical locus—the land. The mountains in the photograph present orderly geometric spaces which resemble text written on the ground; rows of signs arising from the earth, seen from the perspective of distance and time, much like multi-layered documentation from a satellite view.
