This is no ordinary hedgehog. The bestiary (book of beasts) this little guy inhabits describes the imaginative way this hedgehog gathers fruits. He spears grapes with his spikes and rolls through the vine, collecting more and more as he goes. Moral of the story? Care for your spiritual truths, or the devil may carry them off. 
A Hedgehog (detail), Franco-Flemish, about 1270. Tempera colors and gold leaf on parchment. The J. Paul Getty Museum

And this is coming from a middle-class white girl in her mid-twenties who is confused about her life lol. Sorry for ranting. I've just read so much about the show and Lena that I'm just not impressed and really bothered lol

I totally agree!  I was looking forward to a good show, but it’s just a bunch of whiny kids.  I guess it’s one show I can skip!

A man’s work is nothing but this slow trek to rediscover, through the detours of art, those two or three great and simple images in whose presence his heart first opened.
