Equilibrium Rites was a 100 mile walk and performance art ritual that took place February 16-21, 2016. It was performed for the 80 BILLION honeybees that are trucked in from around the country every year to pollinate the 1 million acre California almond monoculture. Harmful migration management practices such as exposure to pesticides, fungicides, long travel, poor diet, and cross contamination of mites and disease between hives have all contributed to the devastating hive loses we've seen this century. Along the walk we sang, drummed, prayed, documented, and interviewed farmers and beekeepers along the desolate desert roads. Through radical remembering of our place within nature's circle, may we figure out how to find harmony and equilibrium again.
The project culminated in a solo show of paintings inspired by the walk at The Hive Gallery, Los Angeles, and a co-curated group show entitled Honey & Venom, which took place in August 2016 as the almonds were harvested.
