Metempyschosis

We are happy to share that Cluster members Dimitra Almpani-Lekka, Natalija Miodragović and Emma Sicher will contribute to a talk series in the realm of the Metempsychosis exhibition. The event aims at celebrating the intersection of art, design, science and ecology, and at exploring how the process of mycofabrication – using fungi as a tool for manufacturing – and multispecies design can reshape our perceptions, inspire new ways of thinking and reconnect us to the environment. Metempsychosis, the idea of mind transmigration, serves as a metaphor for the transformative journey of creating with living mycelium, which not only serves as a medium but actively participates in the creative process.

The exhibition opening is on 1 November, 6 pm, the talks series on Saturday from 5 pm:

Emma Sicher: Tempeh - A material-driven experimentation for eco-social relationalities
Dimitra Almpani-Lekka: More-than-human Membranes: An exploration of urban commons, resilient networks and mutualism in nature
Natalija Miodragović: Growing Architecture: Co-designing with Fungi
