Fuzzy Earth

Unfortunate yet Brave Species🌴
currently on view at the Golden Repair exhibition at Ludwig Museum.

The textile forms part of an installation that speculatively revisits the extinct Paschalococos disperta palm of Rapa Nui (Easter Island). Blending scientific imagination with ecological storytelling, the work reflects on the entangled histories of colonial extraction, species loss, and landscape transformation.

The Belly Knows Before the Brain

16.10.2025—25.01.2026

The exhibition invites embodied engagement with the cycles of digestion, decay, and renewal. Through soil, food, and narratives, the exhibition traces the microbial choreography of transformation, where eating becomes an ecological act, and the belly a site of knowing within Earth’s metabolism.

💚 more-than-human companions:
The compost and its bacterial worlds, the lactobacteria and their fermenting capacities, the herbs from our garden, offering fragrance, nourishment, and resilience, the salt mountains. from Parajd, carrying geological time and human histories, the Bokashi bacteria, transforming food waste into fertile soil, the sheep, for their wool and companionship across landscapes,
and the minerals, grounding our practices in deep time and elemental matter.

is becoming CLIMAVORE

Together with and many collaborators, a new menu is taking shape at .trafo reimagined by drought, soil, and shifting climates.

We’re glad Fuzzy Earth could support the research alongside the fantastic team of chefs, artists, gardeners and researchers 👏👏👏
