Food for Buzz

By 21-03-2019

Insectology: ‘Food for Buzz’ is a series of artificially flowering flowers to serve as an emergency food source for the Big 5 of Pollination: bees, bumblebees, hoverflies, butterflies and moths. Together with engineers and scientists these 5 colourful, man-made flowers have been developed to be self-sustaining and continuously producing natural objects that form the ultimate attraction to the Big 5. By using all unused empty spaces these flowers aim to revive insect populations.
