Drawing via Cyanotype (Living Honeybees, Glass & Various Organic Components) on paper / 44 x 30 inches unframed
The images in this gallery are a collaboration with living honeybees. Incorporating aspects of printmaking, photography and drawing these images were made using organic components and the presence of honeybees. In the fleeting moments that pass during exposure, bees move and vibrate. This movement causes the bees to appear as little ghosts, or soft glowing orbs of light. Their presence is recorded over long exposures using the cyanotype process.
Many bees huddled together form large beautiful organic shapes. The bees represent the majority of the white (highlight) areas within these works. Honeybees are in no way harmed by this project. They come and go freely without any contact with the cyanotype process.
