COMPOST – The Open Bin (Composting Knowledge)
This communal project – a sequential and choreographed series of interlocking events on the topic of “Composting Knowledge” – offers an evolving programming at the OnCurating Project Space (Ausstellungsstrasse 16, Zurich) both on-site and online for 100 days from 10 March to 16 June 2022 with one and more event taking place every for 14 weeks.
Following the process-based and communal methodologies proposed by ruangrupa, we will gather our own “open bin” from 10 March (100 days before the start of documenta fifteen) at the OnCurating Project Space in Zurich. With our “COMPOST – the Open Bin”, various activities will come into contact, ideas will be displayed, discussed and digested, a shared process will be activated, and a space of transition will emerge.
As a curatorial group, we understand “Composting” not only as the natural or direct contact transformation process of digestion/fermentation/composting, but also as a cultural and political articulation, as ways of self-sustaining, of reflecting upon epistemologies, and creating new formations of joyful resistance.
