Jewellery for Insect Conservation
Dragonfly and beetle conservation is critically
underrepresented in both media and conservation initiatives, even as their
populations decline at alarming rates. As they are bioindicators, these insects
reflect the health of entire ecosystems, yet they receive only a fraction of
the attention and funding directed towards more popular species.
My goal is to address this by raising awareness and
generating support for insect conservation through a range of handcrafted
metal, acrylic, and wooden jewellery inspired by dragonflies and beetles.
I am looking for supporters with experience in innovative,
sustainable materials and production methods.
