Synthetic Biota


Joanna Roberts & Eddie Ptak

The natural world is full of wonder and surprise and continues to be an endless source of inspiration for people everywhere.  For those who live in an urbanised environment their exposure to these wonders is likely to be limited, and one major category of living creatures which are often overlooked or underappreciated are the insects, not least because of their small scale.

Joanna and Eddie seek to highlight the fascinating beauty of insects, exploring their structures, patterns and colours. By enlarging the scale of their subjects, their vibrant laser-cut perspex sculptures and kaleidoscopic pictures interpret the amazing range of colours and textures.
