Host: Flyn Viberg

Flyn is a photographer and artist experimenting with 'organic photography': transforming images by hand through a series of alternative processes. These range from the more direct approach of burning or freezing the image to reusing everyday household items found materials and curiosities such as hair wax, soap, nail polish, slime, and toothpaste—the core of their practice centres around the idea that art can be made anywhere using anything.

The Berlin hub aims to create a space where all creatives can come together in an open, collaborative and supportive environment without restriction on age, background, or gender. We look forward to hosting meet-ups, artist talks, workshops, screenings, and more for you.

Host: Bhaavya Goenka

Trash Club Jaipur wants to examine and investigate what post-capitalistic decolonial futures of systems for making look like in the hyper-local context of Jaipur, Rajasthan, informing and informed by a global consciousness. We invite creatives to imagine these futures with us.

We want to take up interesting inquiries responding to the climate crisis, for example- A future where farming for fashion is not necessary. These inquiries would help us imagine a future while learning from the past and perhaps come up with systems that could be explored and implemented today.

After graduating from Central Saint Martins in 2018 with an MA in Fashion Design, Sophie moved to Berlin, Germany, where she co-founded Soup Archive alongside Jasmine Febbraro and Katy Mason.

It said that a tea ceremony can refresh the mind and clear thoughts. All creatives are welcome to join this mending workshop and drink tea in a relaxed environment. Sophie strives to grow the creative network locally through communication on platforms used in China and collaboration.
