About Eggs
Eggs are a natural shape - one of the strongest devised in nature - given size and material. Eggs protect and provide nutrition in some cases and develop life in other circumstances. Some eggs simply decorate. I have imagined eggs of different sizes, with different internal configurations to have a life of their own.
