Cup Recycling

Note

We have ventured into initial experiments to upcycle or recycle broken (or ugly) mugs. So far, they have been used as coasters, but perhaps also as a complete tiled table?

We were inspired by Trencadís, which can be found a lot in Valencia and Barcelona, for example.

Mietendemo 07.02.
Odeonsplatz

While we don't have anything directly to do with housing, the right to the city is still a concern for us. That all people, as in our actions, can use and shape our shared public urban space. But also that all people can find adequate affordable housing in their city.

That's why we will also be at the rent demonstration on Saturday - without a kiosk! Come in large numbers!

Color charts

Note

Color cards on thick watercolor paper – I am still in the process of mixing and painting more color combinations for a whole lot of cards. I use them for playing, creating color series, and experimenting with combinations; also with patients in my art therapy job.

Building Culture Workshop

Building Culture

We build together with local people and playfully appropriate public space in the process. In our workshops, for example, we create stools, seating, tables and other objects that enliven the urban space. It's not just about craftsmanship, but above all about collectively shaping spaces and experimenting with new forms of coexistence.

Art in public space

Art

We make art in urban spaces – together, openly and with whatever is available. In our workshops, we sew, carve, print and play with materials. From fabric, wood, paint or Lego, we create places of encounter and appropriation – for everyone who wants to participate.

Music Workshop

Music

Discovering the sound in everyday things: Using wood, recycled materials, and anything that resonates, we create collaborative sound sculptures. Our kiosk transforms into an interactive soundscape—a place for everyone to experiment and discover new sounds.
