My MFA thesis exhibition Honeybee Collectives happened last weekend, and I am blown away by the the way it all came together. So many people contributed to make this so much more than I could have on my own, and around 100 people visited and participated in the event. Here are some pictures of us setting up the show. I will post documentation of the exhibition soon.

In May, my friend Matt Lind helped me build a top-bar beehive, and I started keeping bees. Sarah Lewison lent her home and joined me on the adventure of becoming beekeepers. I have been documenting this project with sound, video, photography, drawing and writing. I am experimenting with different kinds of interactive digital storytelling to share our experiences. The first chapter is up on my website now as a hyperlink story with an audio option. Click on the image to go there.

Telling the bees is a single-channel, looping video installation about a tradition of telling the bees when a loved one has died. I developed it during an artist residency at Artscape Gibraltar Point, Toronto Islands, Ontario in June-July 2014. It was presented there in July and again at SIU in September.
