The inhabitants of the ant farm, of course, are completely indifferent to what their homeland looks like from the outside. But this is not indifferent to the owners of these small artificial anthills. After all, why have a gray, nondescript ant farm, if you can get a picturesque one, which you can even hang on the wall as a picture?
Designer Hugh Hayden has created a series of unusual Ant Farms Art-Farm (instead of Ant-Farm). In principle, they are not much different from ordinary similar devices. They also have glass walls, they also have earth, and ants also live and work in it.
Only outwardly, these ant farms look very unusual. After all, they are made in such a way as to resemble paintings, so that they can even be hung on the wall. The back and the interior of Art-Farm are made in the form of some kind of drawing. For example, rural pastoral or a bird's eye view of the river estuary. But within this picture, hundreds of hardworking ants will live. Agree, quite an original new look at painting.
And how surprised your guests will be, who, having started looking at the picture on the wall in your living room, will suddenly find that there is someone living their highly organized life inside!
