My Sculpture Brings People and Moths Together

Inside the environmental sculpture that allows people an ethical encounter with moths, created by sculptor Hannah Imlach in a bid to highlight the creatures’ importance as nocturnal pollinators.

For the past year, artist Hannah Imlach has been designing and building the ‘Moth Kota’, an experimental structure designed to allow humans to have an ethical encounter with moths on the RSPB Loch Lomond Reserve. Topped by an ultraviolet sphere, it attracts moths inside, where the nocturnal creatures can be observed and a record kept of the species present on the site before they are released.
