Life of Bees - a photo on Flickriver

Life of Bees

            Roadsworth is known for transforming structures into integral colourful and conceptual parts of the environment. He did this with the silo by covering it completely with paint and creating a larger than life garden of wild flowers that are fitting for the farmland on which sits the silo. The sky painted on the silo merges with the colours of the actual skyline and the intertwining giant leaves and stems are a bit of a funny recall to Joe Johnston’s 1989 movie Honey I shrank the kids when one stands beside it. Bees are an important pollinator in our environment and although teeny-tiny, they accomplish a big job in the food chain. Roadsworth chose to celebrate bees and their role on his silo. The pink flowers, or specifically, the red clovers, are a nod to the silo owner’s love for the colour pink, a colour she uses to brand her farm Horses by Hannah, and Show team in relation to the celebration of inclusion and the anti-bullying movement.
