Blockadia*Tiefsee, Synnika, Frankfurt am Main, 2021
Blockadia*Tiefsee is a temporary collective, constantly changing in shape and size. Like a biopolymer or a collection of cells we knot together in order to motivate change, store energy and carry it outwards. With the possibilities of self-organization, spontaneous disposition and responsibility, of frugality, solidarity and empathy, we test the form-finding of our discourses in material, substance, object and space. The focus is on dealing with the changes in the world due to capitalism and climate change: with what surrounds us under the influence of new technologies, economic and ecological forces and transformations.

With our project Soil Strings - Commoning And Compost for Synnika we create everyday, temporal and material overlaps of "composting" through various stations on the roof terrace as well as installations, other works and a window-film-screening in the exhibition space on the ground floor of the NIKA.haus. We show our discoveries of agreements and dependencies on the often unseen other: from the microcosm of worms to the outside urban space. Open discussions and workshops with the residents and guests of the NIKA.haus expand the space to exchange and convey ideas and knowledge. Together we explore possibilities to rethink resources, relationships and values, and to use renewable methods for the production art in the sense of commoning.
