"Like Flies on a Windowsill (Fear of Insignificance)"



Here you see the three individual windows. Each painted a different color to represent different "homes" or separate "lives"... but they all share the same windowsill which bonds the three separate windows. Each window frames a different sheet from the Unidentified Persons Packet. One is the cover sheet which gives you the date, name of the Coroner, investigating Law Enforcement Agency and the case # for both, a check list, etc. In the second window is the Physical Discriptors sheet which asks for different descriptions of the body... blood type, tattoos, identifiable scars, hair color, etc. The third window holds the Body Condition and Status of Parts sheet which asks if the recovered remains are Well Preserved, Decomposed/Burned, or Skeletal. Then it asks what parts of the body were or were not recovered. And in the corners of all three windows are little piles of dead flies, but upon closer investigation you find that the flies are actually little wire people... representative of unclaimed bodies.
