"The Golden Roach Project" by Budapest-based artist Miklós Kiss
Kiss has placed thousands of golden beetles made of injection molded plastic into museums across the world, placing them throughout the spaces and incorporating them throughout other exhibitions. During
their stay in the exhibition space, visitors have the opportunity to take one of the golden roaches home with them.
"the roach is one of the most disgusting insects, which is capable of getting inside anything, and also earned a doubled fame in public awareness by its imperishability. people treat the roach as a synonym for disgust because of the common repugnance it causes, but at the same time, as an insect which is capable of adapting the most extreme situations, it is a symbol of survival"
