🌀STILL POSSIBLE🌀 Last weekend to visit: thrus/friday 2-6pm, Sat 10-2p Artist Collective spotlight: Worm School ( b. 2021) is an artist collective and reading group. Worms currently writhing in the compost pile are Ako Castuera @akocastuera , Ako Ibekwe @akostaco , Iso Marcus @__isoisoiso__ , Rosie Brand @rosiebrand , and Zena Segre @zsegre Donna Haraway’s Staying With the Trouble was a formative text for worm school, helping shape their practice as ‘earthworm symbionts’. Embracing Donna Haraway’s claim ‘thinking is a materialist practice with other thinkers’. Worm School facilitates reading discussions alongside material exercises for thinking hands. These conversations reflect shared interests in craft practices and their entanglements with local ecologies, material relationships with place, alternate futures, and reimagined pasts. Past discussions have been held online and at community spaces including Pitzer College and The Infinite School. Their piece ( depicted above) 'String Figure, Noded' is a transitional point in the popular ‘Cat’s Cradle’ string figure game. String figures represent a model of collective thinking and storytelling that is in a constant state of transformation and change. Worm school’s noded network casts lines tracing the conversations and exchanges between members of worm school.Past discussion participants contributed small sculptural nodes which add points of complication, connection, and 'trouble' along our shared fibrous loop. The reading nook features research texts from worm school’s library, and a compost-dyed worm, the viewer is invited to sit and digest with worm school.
