Apis Mellifera

Apis Mellifera

Monster of threshold Apis Mellifera

This creature represents a dance of the figure eight in an infinite space. It has an anthropomorphic appearance, half-human and half-bee. It is delicate and fragile, but it must carry out constant work, for only in this way can it identify with what it is. This creature reminds me of a transitional moment in my values, of seeing my works as tools to create community rather than objects to sell to clients. It reminds me of the importance of survival as an individual, like a single bee, but at the same time highlights the importance of a higher purpose, that of the community. This creature reminds me that the work of an individual builds a community, just like the worker bee and its hive. This bee drives me to produce until I understand how to realize myself in life and break free from a mechanical flow of production and consumption. This creature represents my shift in values.
