Eva Fabregas: “At 1000:1 scale, this object is the inverse of the common scale used in architectural modeling. Such devices are designed for swimmers, to hold their nostrils closed and prevent water from entering, or air from escaping, these orifices.

Which of the two exerts pressure and resistance?”
