An abstract metal sculpture has become a Youtube sensation after the artist posted a video showing how it had been created - by pouring molten aluminium directly into a fire ant colony mound.
Although the resulting work - an intricately layered and intertwining piece - is quite beautiful, not everyone has been impressed.
“I disabled comments because I'm sick of your bickering,” the anonymous artist wrote on Youtube, where the video has now received over 7 million views.
“Also, I couldn't get YouTube to stop sending me an email every time someone posted “What if I poured aluminium in your house” for the 100th time.”
On the artist’s website there is a further selection of fire ant sculptures, as well as a number of examples created through carpenter ant colonies.
The pieces are sold through eBay.
Fire ants are by no means man's best friend - their stings are extremely painful, even deadly, and the insects are estimated to cost the US economy around $1 billion per year through the damage they can cause.

What sort of ecological balance/food chain dependency these fire ants provide that this biased article isn't acknowledging?...

For this day shall be reckoned in Ant history as The Great Searing. It is the first time our kind has seen so much horrific destruction brought about by such a weapon. This day shall live in infamy. Today we shall mourn for those we have lost: soldiers, workers, the queen and all her subjects -- murdered in cold blood. But tomorrow, we shall rise against our enemy and they will feel our wrath!
