Wood, wire screen, nylon, acrylic, dollar bills

I wanted to create irony between the destruction of our ecosystem and wildlife, and the necessity of our ecosystem and wildlife. Specifically, we need bees to survive, yet we are still taking advantage of their habitats and species for reasons of consumption and money. Capitalism congests this hive in a layered tangle of dollar bills, sharp metal, and synthetic fabric. Not a single bee in sight. The wood skeleton creates a punctured tension, showing environmental devastation and stress.
