It takes twelve bees their entire lives to produce a single teaspoon of honey. This project transforms that statistic into a spatial narrative: a twelve-piece honeycomb where each hexagon marks a stage of one bee’s life.
A sound collage made from real hive recordings allows viewers to hear bees not as background noise, but as living labor.
By shifting empathy toward the non-human, the work questions our casual consumption of honey and reframes sustainability as a matter of attention. Through design, sound, and storytelling, the project invites viewers to slow down, notice, and reconsider the cost of sweetness.
