Collaborate with Nature


Co-operate and join forces with something. Thing being the operative word, as opposed to most collaborations which include someone. So  start something and team up with,  band together and pool resources to conspire with nature to create something extraordinary.

American artist, Hilary Berseth, organized honeybees architecturally. He constructed basic frameworks of wire and wax, allowing his honeybees to finish the job. Berseth’s armatures each go into a closed box in the spring, and then the respective colonies take over, filling out his templates with wax cells, and stuffing it with honey. His manipulation of natural processes resulted in beautiful, subtle effects with cacti-like formations, curvatures and elegant flowing lines.
