Project description:
Wild bees are as efficient pollinators as honey bees, which is why it is worth taking care of them and being aware of their needs and problems. I wanted my project to not only have a design value, but also an educational value. I want to show that caring for these insects is not difficult, dangerous and requires no effort. My goal was to design a collection of ceramic homes for various species of wild pollinating insects. Through my work I want to familiarize people with the presence of wild pollinators and attract people potentially interested in taking care of wild bees in cities and beyond.
