ECHO OF LEAF AND BODY
Anne-Laure Franchette, Paloma Ayala, Corrina Mattner, Lisa Biedlingmaier, Maya Minder
BadLab is a non-hierarchical collective and network of womxn exploring speculative and collaborative practices at the intersection of craft, art and science. Members have been digging into the diverse ecology offered by DIY and DIWO methods, investigating plant knowledge, womxn practices and mystical approaches through cooking, fermentation, plant-printing and workshops.
We regard healing as an holistic sphere.
During the Echo of Leaf and Body workshop, BadLab will create a collective resonance space through sound and gesture. Participants are invited to contribute and hold the acoustic space together with the vibrations of the gong, readings, writings and a soundscape to be evolved during a process of making a DIY structure of healing. Within these sounds, each participant will choose their healing plants intuitively, foraged in the public space surrounding Volumes, to create a personal healing pattern in the form of a hapazome mandala. Inspired by the heritage of Swiss healer Emma Kunz, BadLab will investigate into healing structures.
BadLab was founded in 2018 by Lisa Biedlingmaier, Anne-Laure Franchette and Maya Minder, with Corinna Mattner and Paloma Ayala. Occasional participants include Emilia Giudicelli, Gregoire Paultre, Aida Haile, Lucile Haute, Plantes Sorcières, Sandra Bühler and Aniara Rodado.
BadLab is supported by ProHelvetia, Fondation suisse pour la culture.
