Mariposas Nocturnas

Meer over het boek

Emmet Gowin's latest project highlights the beauty and diversity of over one thousand nocturnal moth species from various tropical regions. These striking color portraits showcase the insects in their natural postures, often for the first time, arranged in groups of twenty-five per sheet. By combining natural and art historical backgrounds, Gowin emphasizes the urgency of recognizing the often-overlooked biodiversity of the tropics. This work not only celebrates these unique creatures but also advocates for greater environmental awareness and appreciation of our natural world.
