“Melitosfex” Madeleine Oltra & Angelo de Taisne

The collection is stored out of sight.
Melitosfex, the polymorphous queen, watches over the fruits of her labours, her treasure and data. In this melliferous society, everything is carefully stored. The survival of this matriarchy relies on the analysis of its metamorphosing environment.
Since the dawn of time, long before our era, bees have thrived amongst flowers. Their tool-bodies are in contact with the harvest, which they transform into food, care, structure, weapon. Collecting nectar, combing pollen, stinging the enemy with a single sting.
In this secret room, at the heart of the hive, you can hear their vibratory song.
