For the art portion of my project I designed and 3d printed a representation of a libation cup. A libation cup is a communal drinking vessel that was used on important ceremonial occasions. These were and are most commonly made from rhino horns. I ran some test prints and when the results were satisfactory I made a final print from a composite filament that had wood mixed Contextualization was shown through illustrating some of the things that beeswax can be used for. Then I talked about some of the things that we would be without if all the bees were dead.
