insectinside: life in the bushes of a small Peckham park
£20.00 / Sold out
After featuring on BBC’s Springwatch, I am having to reprint Insectinside due to unexpected demand. This means that all orders will take around 3 weeks to fulfil. Many thanks for your patience.
Warwick Gardens is an ordinary park in Peckham, south east London. It's not a nature reserve and has nothing special to warrant it as such. But, after 6 years of photographing the insects, I have unearthed some delights: regional rarities, species new to the country, and some astounding-looking insects, whether it be jewel wasps, camouflaged weevils, or thick-headed flies.
Peckham is being tidied up, revamped and rebranded. This book is a portrait of the insects who live in Warwick Gardens, a story of life in the bushes. Written with a wry look at the gentrification of Peckham through the compound eyes of our tiny neighbours, it reveals the comings and goings, the politics, the celebrations of birth, death and survival.
