Fet Bees

Early Sketches from Conversations with “The Keepers.” This instalment continues with a different social narrative - Hive Guards. I believe these entities present a more intense sexualised proposition to consider. It's well known that a honeybees can make an "offering" to the guards at the entrance of another hive, by regurgitating nectar from their crop, thus bribing the guards who would normally stop other bees. They are then tagged with the scent profile of that hive - like a lot of the pheromone properties in the hive, this part is loosely understood.
