Lecture performance Movie Nature-Culture Food Exhibition space Performance description

We build contemporary culture on the stone ruins of ancient peoples. We wallow in the sweet life, in abundance and waste. We live in ruin and leave behind a cultural landscape of floating space debris, floating plastic islands and buried nuclear waste. So let us remember the present, the here and now, and make ourselves aware: Waste is our downfall, and yet it can be salvation. Over two million tons of food waste from industry, agriculture, gastronomy and private households are produced in Switzerland every year - that's around 3/4 kg per person per day. Parallel to the overproduction of the West, there is worldwide hunger. This is a memorial in honor of all those who, with great physical effort and abstinence, make this luxury possible for us. This is a reminder to us all: So remember and enjoy, the sweet life, the hearty meals, be boisterous and sociable!
