      PARTY ON!
      celebrating bee diversity - while we still can…

      PARTY ON! is our exhibition of prints and drawings depicting the microscopic detail of bees, and is the result of our year-long international art/science research project.
      Our laboratory research into the microscopic world of insects was conducted with internationally renowned bee experts, Christopher O’Toole and Dr. Steve Buchmann of the UK and USA respectively. Detailed taxonomic identification is the starting point for not only the realisation of species decline - disappearing at an alarming rate - but also for recognising the potential for its revival.
      Genitalia, facial structure, hair arrangements, wing patterns are all involved in the species identification process. By getting up close and personal we, too, were able to share in the scientists’ fascination and wonder, and concern.
      Our emphasis for the work in this exhibition is to champion the bee, and celebrate its diversity while we still can. Party on…
