Stunning insect exhibits of museum quality call attention to the displays for Pheromone by Christopher Marley. Can Beetles and Bugs sell luxury gift, personal care and apparel items (the nearby departments)? Aren’t they too, too icky? I suggest to you that the custom matting, surrealistic effect, and otherworldly appearance sanitize the situation. They somehow remove any twinge of visceral response. Bugs and beetles become point-of-purchase and visual merchandising attention compellers of a very high order and reach out to the intellect. CLICK the thumbnail for the “beauty” that goes with these “beasties.”
