Coleoptera is the largest order of insects in the world.Insect in this order have beautiful colours, interesting, shape, and patterns. I choose the “sculpture” as my parameter. This work show characteristics of the insects by using different 6 materials that have similar texture, colours, or shape to create insect sculptures. Moreover, I stick each of their name and put the works in frame to give a sense of museum insect collection.

Mecynorhina Polyphemus (plastic spoon)
Eupholus Schoenherrii (paper clay with nail polish)
Temognatha Alternata (snack packaging )
Chalcolepidius Limbatus (wire)
Scarlet Lily Beetle (tape)
Twenty-two Spot Ladybird (plasticine)
