Spindly Assassins

The Cellar Spider (also known as Daddy Long Legs) is one of the most common household spiders in the world, found in 196 different countries and on 6 out of the 7 continents. The chances are that you have one somewhere in your house right now, But how much do you know about them? “Spindly Assassin’s” explores the lives of Cellar Spiders, looking at their unique behaviour, from how they hunt and take down other spiders over twice their size, to how they care for their precious young. This project takes the form of a magazine and a set of stunning images in order to educate others and encourage them to care more about spiders. Click on the images for more information.
