Alveare 2016

"Alveare" by Camilla d'Errico (2016) features a young girl with blonde hair submerged in a swirling, honey-like liquid, surrounded by bees and honeycomb. The girl's large, expressive eyes and slightly pouting lips add a whimsical touch to the scene, which is characteristic of d'Errico's "kawaii" style, borrowing heavily from Japanese pop culture aesthetics. This style is known for its emphasis on cuteness, often combined with darker or more surreal elements. The image evokes a sense of both beauty and unease, hinting at the potential dangers of nature's sweetness. The artwork's overall color palette is vibrant and playful, featuring soft yellows, whites, and greens.
