Arcana Entomologica
(or new, rare and interesting insects from the collection of Henry Gray)
(2019-2024)
Arcana Entomologica is a collection of arthropods where the individual insects are quite unique. Each vintage box contains a pinned specimen that was hand-built with a combination of materials including fine art papers, thread, collage and cut-outs. All of them include anatomy reprinted from “Gray’s Anatomy” and a background that encourages dialogue between human and invertebrate worlds.
