About the book
“Net as Hive” is a visual and conceptual exploration of the intricate networks that bind us, drawing inspiration from the world of bees and hives. This zine uses the metaphor of a bee’s journey—from the openness of the outside world to the intimacy of the hive—to explore ideas of community, structure, and belonging. Through its pages, readers are invited to journey alongside the bee, discovering parallels between natural and human-made networks.
