This two-part workshop invites participants to tune into the ecological and mythic layers of place through foraging, sound and collective listening.
In the first session, participants take an explorative walk through Parc des Trois Glands, tracing fungal networks, herbs and so-called weeds - resilient witnesses of soil, climate and urban change. Through touching, tasting, recording and listening, participants engage in embodied practices of environmental sensing, while a live audio stream connects this fieldwork to the museum.
The second session unfolds at Mudam, where participants gather to share tea brewed from foraged herbs and listen together to the park’s soundscape. Field recordings and drawing materials become tools for expression beyond language. Artist pantea live-mixes these layers into a sensorial composition, closing with a moment of shared reflection.
Blending fieldwork with poetic practice, this workshop offers a way of listening differently - to each other, to place, and to the more-than-human world.
Program co-curated by Dr. Aouefa Amoussouvi and António Mendes, head of the Publics Department at Mudam.
