Description
Dung beetles are nature’s original recyclers. On a deeper level these remarkable creatures are a social commentary on our environmental footprint, while delivering a powerful message about human impact on our planets resources. Their bold silhouettes stand dramatically locked in a Sisyphean task that transforms waste into possibility.
