Insect Activity
The Elm Bark Beetle created devastation across the UK by impregnating elm trees with a fungal disease known as Ophiostoma Novo-ulmi. Within a decade about 20 million elms, out of an estimated UK elm population of 30 million, were dead. This series of images deals with the contradiction of the natural beauty found in the galleries eaten by the beetles, their traces left behind in the tree bark, and the destruction of the tree.
