Zusammen(er)leben, 2021
artist in residence
communal experiment | mixed matter | commission
zusammen(er)leben, from german: living (and experiencing) together. the project intends to re-sensibilize all senses, sharpening our awareness of nature and generating ways of being, in and with nature.
as part of “lindau gartenschau” 2021 the group transformed the area marked on the map in the pulvertobel near streitelsfingen into an experimental outdoor gallery. an exhibition in nature and with its conditions. during the course of three weeks, the artists complemented the experiment with workshops and guided tours. during this period temporary works were created and developed in symbiosis and reciprocity with the environment, in which the project was situated.
as a group we explored practices that can be done together from what is present. using leftover loges that blocked passage into the forest we layed a new route; with the leftovers we built a paper mill generated by the force of the river. we dag loam and clay from riverside and constructed the heart of the project: the kitchen. with daily foraging walks and a weekly supply of fruits and vegetables from local farmers, they didn’t need much more to survive (german: überleben).
over the four weeks in the forest we host dinners, welcomes spontaneous guests and held workshops for childern in various ages: introducing them to clay, paper making, foraging and activeting all senses.
made in collaboration with albertine mietusch, karolina kaiser, leonie loehr, madeline wagner, and nhu huynh at pulvertobel in streitelsfingen, lindau am bodensee,
