Review of BE, Coventry Cathedral, 2017

There is something very calming about spending time with honeybees. Their world moves at a slower speed – it’s as complex, dangerous and brutal as our own, but their lives are simpler and more measured in their pace. To sit by the hive-entrance is to catch a glimpse of their experience – sharing a physical space with the super-organism of the colony. And however overwhelming the human world may feel, a return to my garden-hive offers a constant source of peace and calmness, meditation and solace.
