From my hands, the Daughter of the Sun comes to life.
On a 25 cm circular canvas, delicate yet imposing, a golden energy unfolds like petals opening to the sky.
Between reality and symbol, between pollen and light, life dances, is reborn, and manifests itself.
It is not just a bee… it is an ancient call, a queen vibrating between shadow and radiance, an essence that nourishes and guides, with golden wings and a cosmic soul.

I wanted this figure to remain delicate yet fully present across the surface of the circle, almost “giant” in its symbolic importance, honoring the precious mission of insects. The gilded surface returns light and sacredness to its form, transforming matter into living presence.
Every detail celebrates the Queen Bee as guardian of order and harmony, reminding us that every creature has its value, its rhythm, and its beauty. This bas-relief is part of the Microcosm Collection, where every small being becomes a protagonist and contributes to the balance of the whole.
