Kerry McAleer-Keeler: “An Exquisite Future was designed and produced by the students in fall 2014 under the guidance of instructor Sarah McDermott. In the book, the group explores the implications of a future with a reduced population of honeybees. A vital pollinator of many types of food plants for humans and animals, honeybees are in danger of disappearing because of colony collapse disorder. The artists used this phenomenon as a starting point for contemplating the future. Each artist responded to the preceding vision, building on what came before and using humor while considering potential difficulties.”
