Astral Snake

Anselm Kiefer's beautiful Astral Snake at the Metropolitan Museum of Art reminds me a lot of this. Something very powerful about celestial snakes, whether hanging from the ceiling of a zoo or represented by torn and pasted photographs in an art museum. Perhaps related to the ancient symbol of the Ouroboros?
