Fruits of Labour, a pattern for fabric company Liberty. “This distorted world magnifies the effects that increased flooding events have had on some of our planet’s most vulnerable creatures. The loss of habitat has worsened still as harsh pesticides and pollutants rise out of the groundwater and become concentrated. Represented are the likes of Hine’s emerald dragonflies, Christmas Island red crabs, dawn ants, flightless dung beetles and five-horned rhinoceros beetles—all of which are now classified as threatened according to the IUCN Red List. Swept away on lily pads, these insects desperately clamber and cling onto fruits and vegetables from their now distant homelands, all the while hungry koi lurk beneath the murky depths.”
