Fire Snails

Fire snails are one of the rarest snail species in the world. They can be exclusively found in the diameter of 100 km in a very specific tropical mountainous forest in Malaysia, at altitudes exceeding 1,000 m. They do not require much to survive and remain (be)happy. They differ from all other snails primarily in color. Their appearance characterized by its black shell and a bright red foot is what makes them highly attractive in appearance.

This artwork shows two fire snails, a female and a male, whose shells incorporate the logarithmic spiral, i.e. Fibonacci sequence. In addition, if you take a closer look, you will notice that the female snail leaves behind a recognizable footprint the same way as every other woman in a man’s real life journey.
