Every February, 70% of the commercial honey bees in the United States, roughly two million colonies, are loaded onto lorries and driven to California. They are going to pollinate the almonds. 80% of the world's almonds come from one valley in California. Over 1.3 million acres of nothing but almond trees, blooming for three weeks in monoculture, requiring more pollinators than the state can produce on its own. So the bees are trucked in from every corner of the country. Florida. New York. Montana. The bees are fed sugar water for the journey because their own honey has been removed to lighten the load. They arrive in the Central Valley to a landscape that is, for three weeks, pink and white blossom, and for the other forty-nine weeks of the year, dead. Nothing to eat. No forage. No diversity. Just almond trees and bare dirt, sprayed regularly with fungicides and insecticides that were deemed bee-safe in adult bees but turn out to be lethal to larvae when combined. In February 2025, commercial beekeepers reported the worst die-off on record. Around 60% of commercial honey bee colonies in the United States dead in a single pollination season. Financial losses estimated well over $139 million. Some beekeepers lost 90 to 100% of their colonies. The almonds are marketed as plant-based. Clean. Ethical. The preferred alternative. The preferred alternative requires the single largest managed pollination event in human history and it is quietly killing the pollinators faster than they can be replaced. Every glass of almond milk is, statistically, a small contribution to the largest pollinator die-off on record. This is not in the advertising.

Each bee has four wings. So this veil took about 5,000 dead bees to make. A single healthy hive holds up to 60,000. Luci Jockel is a jeweler out of Rhode Island School of Design who only uses bees that died of natural causes. She found beekeepers who’d lost their hives and made a deal: she’d put in physical labor helping them rebuild, and they’d give her the wings from the bees that didn’t survive. A Rhode Island beekeeper named Paul Whewell had lost everything to a harsh winter. She worked his hives, learned to keep bees from him, then started her own colonies with her dad. Other wings came from rooftop hives at the RISD Museum, the Brooklyn Museum, and the MAD Museum in Manhattan. Each wing is about half the width of a dime. She glued them one at a time with archival glue, the kind museums use to preserve artwork, to create a material she calls “bee wing lace.” The pattern comes from Dutch lace collars she studied in 1600s portraits at the RISD Museum. Nine years of work. The finished piece is a mourning veil, made to grieve the bees it came from. Jockel started building this in 2017. Back then, US beekeepers were already losing around 40% of their colonies every year. Last year it hit 55.6%, the worst since tracking began in 2010. Commercial operations lost 62%. In raw numbers: 1.6 million colonies gone in twelve months, with damage above $600 million in replacement costs and lost honey production alone. Bees keep most of your food supply running. About 75% of US crop production depends on them. California’s almond harvest alone needs 1.4 million hives trucked in every spring, roughly 60% of all managed colonies in the country, for a crop worth $6 billion a year. Total annual value to American farming: $34 billion. She needed 5,000 bees and nine years to build one veil. One in every three bites of food you eat depends on the ones still alive.

This veil is made from exactly 20,000 honey bee wings. As part of a nine-year project, Luci Jockel sourced the wings from beekeepers who lost their hives due to extreme weather conditions.

In the 1930s, average rent was $18 a month. At $0.25/hour, you could pay rent in 72 hours of work. Today, to pay $1000 rent at the federal minimum wage of $7.25/hour, you gotta work 138 hours.
