White Bee (2020/24)

White Bee explores a forgotten matriarchal lineage within a patriarchal context, engaging with memory, female identity, and family ties. The work connects a distant past with personal reflections on womanhood and future inheritance, while examining the emotional, cultural, metaphysical, and biological bonds between generations, as I explore my own role within this continuum. In a time when the future feels particularly uncertain, the question of whether I too will one day be “a white bee” for someone becomes both a personal and generational inquiry. It is a reflection on continuity and inheritance, as well as their possible absence, opening a space for deeper contemplation of how, and whether, future generations can exist at all.
