PORTABLE INSECT CEMETERY
An insect cemetery is set up on a green lawn, returning the bodies of these insects to their natural habitat.
The structure rests on four wheels. A rope tied at one end allows it to be moved. Twenty-five insect-sized coffins sit on one side of the cemetery, ready to house the bodies of the dead insects lying in one part of the cemetery.
This work takes on different characteristics depending on the site in which it is installed. There are numerous embroideries on paper. The work is a ‘work’ in progress’.
