THE STORY OF THE GOLDBUG
THE PALMETTO BUG IS OFTEN AN UNWELCOME GUEST IN CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA. TAKING INSPIRATION FROM THEIR ENTOMOLOGICAL FORM AND THE SHORT STORY “THE GOLD-BUG” BY EDGAR ALLEN POE, MINI HAS GILDED THESE INSECTS, ELEVATING THEM TO AN ART FORM THAT IS WORN OFTEN AND WITH PRIDE.
“IN CHARLESTON YOU LOOK UP AND SEE CHURCH STEEPLES AND LOOK DOWN AND SEE COCKROACHES; THESE ARE THE ICONS OF OUR HOLY CITY.”
