This experimental and educational beehive follows the traditional Dadant-Blatt standard for frame dimensions to be compatible with regular hives, while featuring horizontally offset supers that also allow it to function as a dual-colony system. A swarm will be introduced under the supervision of a professional beekeeper, serving not just aesthetic but experimental, observational and honey-production purposes as well. Because of its complex structure it requires a slow working pace.

Tamás Kaszás is an artist graduated from the Intermedia Department of the Hungarian Academy of Fine Arts where he is currently a teacher. He usually creates complex projects inspired by theoretical research. He applies both traditional and new media in his works. By mixing poetic images with useful inventions in his exhibition practice, individual works of art appear mostly as constellations within the larger framework of installations, named visual aid constructions. His projects are based on social and ecological issues and spiritual practices. Keywords like collapse and survival, self-sustainability and autonomy, theory vs. practice, folk science, fictional anthropology, living in nature, might give an idea about his most prevalent topics. He is member of two artist duos: Randomroutines (with Krisztián Kristóf, since 2003), and Ex-artists’ collective (with Anikó Loránt, 2003-2020).
Solo exhibitions include National Gallery, Budapest (2023), Trafó, Budapest (2021), de Appel, Amsterdam 2018, Museu Calouste Gulbenkian, Lisbon (2017), Muzeum Sztuki, Lodz (2016), Galerie Krinzinger, Vienna (2014). His work was part of group exhibitions at Werkleitz Gesellschaft, Halle (2025), EVA International, Limerick (2023), Documenta fifteen, Kassel (2022), OFF-Biennale Budapest (2017), the Bucharest Biennale 7 (2016), 19th Biennale of Sydney, Sydney (2014), 12th Istanbul Biennial (2011).
