American artist Jennifer Angus has used an intricate pattern of insects to decorate a vivid pink room at the Renwick Gallery in Washington DC. Designed to resemble wallpaper, the bug-covered wall installation is titled The Midnight Garden and was made using preserved insects from a variety of species. Based in Madison, Wisconsin, where she teaches at the university, Angus has long used insects in her work – collecting the creepy crawlies in an ecologically sustainable way from locations around the world. She also meticulously reuses her stock of arthropods from project to project.
