If Bees are Few..., is part of the long term exhibition The Non-Urban Garden - gardens of the 21st century by Kunstvereniging Diepenheim. If Bees are Few... - this quote of the American poet Emily Dickinson forms the starting point of the publication. What will happen if bees are few? The first part of the book consists of a series of images which reflects on the ancient relationship between man and bee, but the bee itself has disappeared from this archive. The core of the book is a story written by the British science and fiction writer Simon Ings, inspired by the collected images.
