OECHERLAB: On Science – Art – Communication, 31 January 2024

 

How can the big questions of climate change be dealt with artistically? How can material cycles be generated on a small scale that are scalable for larger contexts? What role does art play in science here?

These big and at the same time important questions in the context of sustainability are at the centre of the event. The MITKUNSTZENTRALE team from Berlin led by Nora Wilhelm, Erik Göngrich and Valeria Fahrenkrog will share their experiences and answers with all interested parties in Aachen at the OecherLab on 31 January 2024, 16.30 h – 18.45 h

A multi-sensory workshop offers an introduction to the topic of art and science communication on bio-based materials in the context of sustainability. There, the properties of mycelial composites can be explored using elements of drawing.”

MULE (Mobile Upcycling Lab Experience) will also be on site. As a mobile real laboratory, it offers plenty of space for experimentation and research, for example with new bio-based materials in the city of Aachen. MULE will showcase student projects on the sustainable use of textiles and provide information on new research results from the BIOTEXFUTURE innovation space, opening up a discussion space for ideas, associations and problems that can arise when dealing with (bio-based) materials.

This event will be held in German!
