Save The Bees
2015
Wood, Hot Glue, Wax, Pyrography
4'8" x 4'10" x 1'

This piece was inspired by not only the current dwindling state of the bee population, but sacred geometry and it's relationship to geometric patterns found in nature. The honeycomb structure built by bees contain their larvae, honey, and pollen and are perfectly formed every time in ideal symmetrical shapes. The dome itself is missing parts of it's structure and spilling out onto the floor to emphasize the fall of the honey bee. The wax is dripped throughout the structure randomly to stress chaos and worry.
