The collection of illustrated letters started off as a Uni project in 2018
and is based on Swedish botanist Carl Linneaus'
binomial nomenclature 'Systema Naturae' from 1735
Each letter is paired with a bird and a tree from the system
and the three of them all share the same letter,
pointing to the specific specie's name (not the genus name).

The letters proved to be a success and the collection now includes additional letters, including the three initially made.
This is now an ongoing project.
