Exit Studio Wax Worm_2.jpg

In a world made up of remnants of human technology, nature has adapted to survive and created the Wax Worm.


Inspired by a plastic-consuming caterpillar from the Pyralidae family, this artwork celebrates the power of nature and its ability to adapt to various adverse conditions caused by humans.


Artists see that the world of technology is becoming more natural to us than living forms, and so use Wax Worm as a warning of the dire but possible future of our planet. Can humanity adapt fast enough?


Wax Worm's object is made from recycled cables.
