🐝 Today is World Bee Day! In the artwork The Earth Stings, young student artist Hayoon Chun imagines bees wearing oxygen masks as they struggle to survive in polluted air: a powerful reflection on the hidden impacts of human activity on pollinators and ecosystems. Bees are responsible for pollinating one-third of the food we eat, yet pollution, habitat loss, and climate change continue to threaten their survival. This World Bee Day, let this artwork remind us that protecting biodiversity means protecting even the smallest lives among us. 🎨 The Earth Stings by Hayoon Chun Irvine, CA | 2025 Junior Division #WorldBeeDay #BowSeat #artivism #youth #biodiversity
