Asthonishing Numbers at the Field of Facts
DRAMATURGY
The contribution of bees on human agriculture can not be overestimated. As plant pollinators they develop “superhero” powers measured by humand standards. As silent helpers, they are indispensable for both nature and humans. The field of facts delivers the astonishing numbers to this revelation. The sculptural aspect of this area also enables a very playful approach on those datas.
KEY WORDS
agriculture, productive livestock, super-powers
COMMUNICATIVE GOAL
showing the power-spectrum of bees for agriculture
Sculpture-Flock
In the European Union, bees are the thirdmost-important productive livestock, right behind cattle and pigs. This installation of wooden sculptures shows this fact not without some sense of humour. The flock can be used as play- and climbingground for children.
Pyramid of Crop Plants
80 out of the 100 most important crop plants all around the world are pollinated by bees. Concerning the plants that are strictly for food-use, it’s even 90 out of 100. This relation is shown by a raised bed of plants, a threedimensional figure.
