MUTUOGENESIS: Rite for Mutualism
Falscher Fisch, Berlin, Germany
2025
Rite for Mutualism is one mutation within Mutuogenesis, the evolving ecosystem initiated by Jerszy Seymour with S27 and Kunstgewerbemuseum. For one week, LIOS Labs inhabits the Lucky Garage as a migratory nest—soft, glowing, mutant—dedicated to radical interconnectedness, social ecology, and the principle that migration is an Earth right.
Working closely with S27’s youth participants with migration backgrounds and invited Berlin-based artists, LIOS Labs offers a series of workshops and activations leading to the participatory performance Rite for Mutualism, presented during Berlin Art Week.
