A World In Which The Bugs Are Very Big (And Robotic)

Scott Bain’s Micromachina are intended to make the viewer consider questions of nature, urbanization, genetic modification, and mechanization. How do they do that? By showing a world in which bugs are terrifying massive machine-filled super creatures. And, yes, those are real hollowed-out bugs Bain’s using. Gross.

The works are currently on exhibition at the 2011 Adelaide Fringe Festival. Pretty fringe indeed. More to be found over at Behance.
