The Metamorphosis of the Bee-Keeper's Daughter
The BeeKeepers Daughter
Deeply saddened by the looming extinction of the honey bees, I wanted to create a story of romance and tragedy. In this series, I strive to tell a story of the bee-keepers daughter, and her melancholy as she mourns the death of her bees. Some of the images include an added layer of artificially collaged flowers, where the images are then rephotographed to imagine the absurdity of a future where the real flowers have disappeared.
on becoming - the tale of the bumble bee
Inspired by Kafka’s book Metamorphosis, and continuing my exploration on the previous story of the bee-keepers daughter, we re-imagined the possibility of the daughter perhaps becoming the bumble bee.
I hope to continue on my exploration on this topic with more conceptual personal projects in 2024. Upcoming projects will have a focus on air population, forest fires, and the destruction of our oceans.
