This work was influenced by the psychology of ultraviolet light. Bees, unlike humans, can distinguish between various colours and, most significantly, ultraviolet (UV) light. As a result, patterns are produced by the pigments in flower petals that absorb UV light. These patterns sometimes called “nectar guides” or “honey guides,” are thought to direct pollinators to the centres of flowers. I incorporated these patterns in my illustrations when designing the video assets. UV patterns of plants are significant in the flower-pollinator interaction because many insects’ frequency ranges of visual perception extend into this region.
