    "No one I know uses a paper road map anymore, they all use inbuilt sat navs or their phones. But I love old road maps, I love the colors they are printed on and the quality of the paper is amazing. I decided to capture the quality and feel of old road maps by using some in my stash to create these paper moths. I even displayed the moths in a frame like they would be in a museum, giving each one a faux Latin name."
