"Beetle has been inspired by the Rhinoceros Beetle - one of the World’s strongest creatures which can support up to 850 times it’s own weight on it’s back. However, Hicks’ Beetle is not simply a reproduction of nature - its awesome presence reflects the driving force behind all her work - that of exploring the human consciousness of natural history."
