HIDDEN THIRD PARTNER: IN THE COMPANY OF YEAST





23 June 2025

Art Research Garden 

A workshop by Ayșe Köklü, Brandon LaBelle and Jol Thoms  


A relaxed afternoon in the Art Research Garden in communion with "wild" local yeast with guests Ayşe Köklü, Brandon LaBelle and Jol Thoms. The space was held for this microscopic agent of flux in the form of a microbial meditation, a starter ceremony and ecological and speculative listening praxis, fermentation and other transformational processes such as gleaning, washing, kneading and baking. 

A sourdough starter was initiated during the day to cultivate a listening praxis with the wild yeast to span up to the associated London Listening Biennial workshop in Autumn 2025.
