Redruth Posted July 3, 2010 Author Share Posted July 3, 2010 insects have some of the most amazing shapes and subtle colors incorporated into their design sometimes i go bug watching in the same way that others might watch birds - using a magnifying glass i get up extra close - being very carful not to burn them with the beams of the sun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"There are more insects on earth than any other living species" she says, "and having the opportunity to mould all the amazing and beautiful noises they make into something other really appealed to me.² [vimeo]3464083[/vimeo] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
