MOULD WITH ME is a dance performance and interactive installation that moves through cycles of resilience, transformation, and decay. Drawing inspiration from the living intelligence of fungi and its life principles, the work explores what it means to unlearn human control and surrender to processes of change. Through choreography, sound, and visual environments, the piece invites audiences into an ecosystem where bodies, matter, and time continuously decompose and reform – a reminder that life thrives in the act of becoming.
The performance was created in collaboration with Norwegian biologists & mycologists Renée Jung and Sondre Eng.
Duration: 1 hour + 1 hour open installation
“Fungi is future” 6th February 18.00 – 19.30
An open talk by Norwegian molecular biologist and mycologist Renée Jung.
Renée Jung (NO) co-founder of Mycela Lab, is a molecular biologist and mycologist. Her number one passion is fungi and its potential for solving environmental issues. With extensive lab and research experience, she has published articles and lectures on the magic of mushrooms.
The lecture will serve as an introduction to the fungal kingdom – its types, habitats, and the many ways fungi can benefit us and our life of our planet. We will dive deeper into looking at mycelium and molds, exploring their movement, communication, and unique nature. This will lead to a more philosophical discussion on coexisting with fungi – our “aliens on Earth” – engaging the audience in reflection and dialogue.
