Telling the Bees

Kate Daudy is a conceptual artist best known for her public interventions and large-scale outdoor sculptures. Her imagination extends across the multiplicity of art forms, she speaks several languages and often involves words in her work. The wealth of her ideas is visible through the innate dynamics of her career – vision and personal engagement, innovative use of new technologies, environmentalism and the bringing of light. She has long standing collaborations with scientists and thinkers across many media. Although disruptive, her work remains full of optimism. Current world circumstances may seem dire but, Daudy underlines, the future is in our hands.

Her work is the subject of a retrospective exhibition at the university of La Sorbonne, Paris in spring 2025 during which she will deliver a series of lectures on the themes expressed in her work. She has exhibited worldwide. In Spain her work is on the national curriculum. Recent exhibitions include the Saatchi Gallery, Yorkshire Sculpture Park, Southbank Centre, Museum of the Moving Image in NYC, Hayward Gallery and Saint Paul’s Cathedral. Daudy has invented her own universal font and several visual languages, as well as creating new ways of working with sound and noting musical score.

Kate Daudy’s project at the institute “Telling The Bees” looks at the history of humankind’s relationship with nature and society what we can learn from the past in order to build a more harmonious future. The project will culminate in a large scale travelling exhibition and series of lectures in Spain and NYC.
