Are bees disappearing? What does that mean? Where are they going? Given their recent artistic collaboration with artist Ava Roth, maybe their recent disappearnce is bees’ version of conceptual art? Here’s more on Roth’s work, from COLOSSAL:
The climate crisis, habitat destruction, pesticides, and invasive species are among numerous factors that have led to an unprecedented decline in honeybee populations during the past two decades. But for Toronto-based artist Ava Roth… visibility is a major tenet of her unique, collaborative practice.
Within concentric wooden frames, Roth employs encaustic and embroiders patterns with thread and beads, creating the groundwork for the next phase of her process: inserting individual works into her hive and inviting the bees to determine the final composition.
