Insect as a specimen

Garnet Hertz, in his installation of the fly, wired LED lights to its body and limbs, controlled the blinking of these LED through some users from the WWW. A signifier of disrespect for the small little insect, making it a toy for all to have fun. Man always thinks that he is the master of other living things, mutilate them as they wish.
