Toronto-based artistAva Rothis unlike other collaborative artists: instead of working with people, sheworks with bees.
During the collaboration, Roth’s portion of work comes in the form of collages suspended in embroidery hoops.
After she arranges these elements to her liking, the bees come in to add their geometric touch.
Roth then attaches the hoop to custom-made beekeeping frames and places it in a beehive.
Her direct collaboration with bees is just one aspect of her work.
With the rolehoneybeesplay in pollinating many of the world’s crops, the species is vital to food production.
