Artist Statement: Originally conceived as an artist’s book, The Journey of Bees was inspired by the relationship humans have had with bees over the centuries. In ancient Egypt, men would place the hives on boats and sail down the Nile to allow the bees exposure to different plants. Similarly, in Palestine the hives would be placed on the backs of camels and taken to orange groves at night. Although cities are growing and societies are becoming more insulated from the natural world, the placement of beehives on top of city buildings shows a return to surrounding ourselves and working with nature.
