These undervalued insects play an important role in safeguarding us and our future.
Protection, invasion or extinction – this is dictated by the fine balance and connection between their fluctuating environment and the ever-changing climate.
Each wasp is handmade and can be sold individually.
There are 55 in total.
They have two metal pins from their feet allowing them to be attached to a surface, giving the illusion they are weightlessly attached.
The wasps vary from the photos due to the nature of each one being made individually.
Please enquire for the price of an individual wasp or a price for the entire collection.
Resin, Gloss Paint, Jesmonite, Wire and Gold Leaf.
