NotesI find it funny that you can order nearly anything in the mail, even bees. So, I made a book about life and geometry and the grey area between the two, packaged into a compact brown box.
The images of bees are linoleum carvings stamped onto amber lighting gel, and the box holds itself together with tiny jewelry magnets.
