Have you visited Luci the Giant Caterpillar on the @southaustralianmuseum lawns? This incredible sculpture by @wills.projects asks the question: What might be overlooked or too small to be seen? Luci is an opportunity to highlight a unique caterpillar that is part of a local symbiotic relationship between the Chequered Copper Butterfly, the common black ant and native sorrel. She's enlarged 1000 times bigger than real life, bringing a tiny world right into into right in the heart of Adelaide CBD! Using your smartphone, you can bring all our curious critters to life around Luci in augmented reality📱 🐛🐛🐛 #herdingcaterpillars #naturefestivalsa #nature #augmentedreality #virtualreality #ar #vr #extendedreality #butterfly #caterpillar #sculpture #adelaideevents #adelaide #whatsonadelaide
