Finished
SHARE
With various types of thread spun out of a gland on its hip, the spider has a different web for each purpose. These wondrous, intricately-designed spiderwebs not only serve an important function in terms of the movement and life of a spider but also conceal a fascinating mystery, keys to the spider's artful work. Both miniature artist and skillful predator, the spider is capable of spinning circular, hoof-shaped, fan-shaped, hammock-shaped, dome-shaped webs and many more. This exhibition introduces the geometrical designs spun out of these lace-like webs, prompting visitors to take a second look at these everyday creatures.
