Overview

This butterfly exhibition is a virtual museum that aims to raise awareness about the butterfly species that inhabit Cyprus and Greece. This exhibition aims to preserve the species as well as educate naturalists and younger generations about them in a more modern way.

Our project introduces the world to a more modern way of exhibiting butterfly species along with information on species taxonomy, host-plants, phenology and conservation status. All the specimens are dry-pinned and stored in entomological boxes and from there we will create an online exhibition to display them, by making 3D models. Even though the colours might differ a little bit, , the 3D models are very detailed, so they will look almost like how they were alive.
