中国上海艺术家张月白把昆虫塑造成了蒸汽朋克艺术作品



Zhang Yuebai combines insect bodies with mechanics from watches and jewellery to make his unusual artworks. He can spend up to a month assembling the intricate and fiddly pieces

张月白将昆虫标本与取自手表珠宝的机械装置结合在一起制作他不同寻常的艺术品。他可以花上一个月时间来组装这些复杂精细的作品



The way bug collector and artist Zhang Yuebai goes about his work is something that comes straight out of horror fiction.

昆虫收藏家与艺术家张月白称他作品的创意直接从恐怖小说中得来。



“I need to have really steady hands as it requires great precision. If my hands are shaky, I’m unable to place the parts where they need to be,” says Zhang, also known as Lantusi. He recalls a time where he accidentally pushed the specimen off the table and broke all legs of a spider.

“我需要保持双手稳定，因为制作过程中需要非常精确。”如果我的手不稳就不能把零件安装在他们该在的地方，”张月白同时也叫兰图西说。他回忆说又一次他把标本从桌子上推倒不小心摔断了一只蜘蛛的腿。



The ones he still owns he keeps as pets and no, he does not plan to use them as future models. But does he have a favourite work so far?
“Yes, [always] the next one”, says Zhang.

他饲养的那些仍然是宠物。不，他不打算把它们当作未来模型的原料。但到目前为止，他觉得哪个工作做得最喜欢？
“永远是下一个。”张说。
