Simon Delobel from the Verbeke Foundation, (NL) recently wrote in to alert us to the works of Jef Faes. Jef Faes is a Belgian artist working in a particularly interesting medium — bee hives.

Jef’s sculptures combine the natural elements of the living beehive with what appear to be his artistic versions rendered in plaster. The end art-product is an intersting mix of human and insect collaboration — something that we always enjoy here at Animal Architecture. Thanks for the tip Simon!

Ned spends most of his time wondering how our world can better support the lives within it. Musings fit for print end up here. He hopes you enjoy them.
