Alana Bartol and Bryce Krynski all roses sleep (inviolate light) , 2022, 4K ultraviolet olfactory video, 1-minute trailer, full video 14:10.

all roses sleep (inviolate light) is an olfactory video that blends how bees and humans experience and use the land around us. Shot using ultraviolet video, visitors are invited to see the prairie landscape from a bee’s point of view and a scratch and sniff card expands on the pleasant and pungent experience of pumpjacks, grazing cattle, prairie grasses, and wildflowers. As the solitary bee searches and dreams of a rose, the work is meant to conjure questions about our shared future.
