Children will also be able to view two large paintings of moths by eX de Medici, which the Australian artist created after observing specimens at the CSIRO, Australia’s National Science Agency, and her own postcard drawing.

Experience eX’s work by touching a 3D reproduction of one of her paintings, and learn more about insects through a selection of books, photos and videos, and gain a greater understanding about the vital roles insects play in our world.
