My small world
installation investigates a natural environment
free of fear. Many times humans cannot explore an aspect of life due to
physical or mental restrictions. I am completely fascinated with
the way honey bees live however I am incredibly allergic to their venom. Through its doorway, the
audience can see the inside of a hive, find
peace in the natural rhythms of shape there, and smell the thick warm
yellow beeswax.
I love this idea of the honey comb. Getting to look into their little world and its the little world of bees, that keep our big world going. I love how bees have such and instinctive craftsmanship, its just fascinating. This is a really cool concept and I hope you continue to work with it. An artist to look at , just in case you haven't heard of them, is Aganetha Dyck. Check her stuff out its cool.
