the nails--reminds me of Stephen Daedelus's desccirption of the role of the modern aratist in A PORTRAIT OF THE ARTIST AS AYOUNG MAN--
that once done, the auhtor/artitst presents the work to the public--then turns away, to pare his/her fingernails!
when i was very young my mother gave me a book i have to this day--THE STORY BAG --it is ac olection of Korean Folk Stories--
in one of them rats eat a man's nail parings, and take possesion of his soul--the moral of the story was not to let others find your nail parings, hair clippings ect, as it could lead to be being possed by another--
alnmost like a zombie--
i wil be glad to to send some things--for no charge! (i once my hair very long to a woman with wig place in Paris--and got enough money to live on for another month--)--i
one cuold always if frightened of possesion send say the attach on nails--[painted various ways! ( i have been using found nail polics h for paintings and they work very wello, many o fhtem--i have not found any nails though-huma/plastic--)
