The idea of preserving a body is rather complex.

Obviously we cannot preserve what will inevitably change.

Only the image, not the object, can be preserved.

One image does not a body make.

The sensuality of a beautiful body will change as all things do...

Preserving a group of images can only suggest the form of a body.

everything changes

Physical images are two-dimensional.

Mental images are multidimensional.

How will a group of images reconstruct both physically and figuratively?

At what point does the integrity of the accumulated images reassemble into a mental image?

The integrity of the images change as they leave the two dimensional plane and conform to the curvature of the jars.

Integrity is not simply a matter of reassembling a form.

Image/form/dimension

In this case there are ten planes.

And MIDBODY is number 5
