“Function is a potential, all objects can be something, It’s a choice!”. And it is indeed a choice to work with an unusual “team” of co-workers; the bee colonies that have been living on the roof of the Kunsthal. He drew his inspiration from the The Karamazov Brothers, (the final novel by Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky) which represents a kind of shadow or anti-novel where two visions - one existential and tragic, the other christian and comic are unequally balanced trapped in between the hero and anti-hero philosophical cage.

They have been “invited” to collaborate with Tomáš Libertíny on realising his newest work of art: ‘Eternity’. The protagonist is the designer’s idea, the attention shifts from the “product” to the idea that underlies it and the thought that it expresses. The move is from material to durable immaterial the synthesis of concept and object in this specific case. (His project "Made by Bees" is to be showcased during the next 17th International Architecture Exhibition titled “How will we live together ?” curated by Hashim Sarkis and organized by La Biennale di Venezia).
