We are busy preparing to travel to Pyhäjoki, Finland next week for a two week intensive gathering called “Case Pyhäjoki — Artistic reflections on nuclear influence 1.” We have been making a “powerless powerpoint”—a slide presentation that can work without electricity—to introduce our work and experience working at the intersections of art, ecology and activism. […]
Warm weather has brought a flurry of Søger Bolig [Seeking Apartment] fliers to the streets of our quarter. This activity is a complicated process that makes you think of dating services that brings complete strangers together in a semi-public/private manner. We hope to continue documenting these fliers and will work to understand some […]
Our friend, Christa Donner, interviewed us for her Cultural Reproducers blog project documenting artists who are also parents. You can read our interview here. Thanks for inviting us, Christa!
Christa is a Chicago based artist who works with organic imagery most often with ink on […]
I found a new poster in the neighborhood this week to add to the Søger Lejlighed (apartment hunting series). This one was a great find because of the personal photograph of the people searching + a nice drawing + a heartfelt letter. This flyer is one of my favorites […]

In addition to the general richness of our recent visit to the Kultivator farm, we had the great experience of collaborating with Kultivator on building a bicycle shed with a green roof. We offered our labor in exchange for being fed and housed for the weekend. It was wonderful to be able to add to […]
Last week we posted about our obsession with these Søger Lelighed (Looking for an apartment) signs and we are back again this week with some more examples from around Copenhagen.
First up, we have this wheatpasted example from our neighborhood; there is a little bit missing so my translation will be slightly off.

Like everything they do, the sign leading to the Kultivator Farm is infused with humor. Konst och grönt (Art and Vegetables), a play on the typical Swedish kiosk sign frukt och grönt (fruit and vegetables). “It’s nice to have a relative who works for the city. He just shows up with these signs. Doesn’t […]
I visited the long-running—50+ years—intentional community and eco-village, Findhorn, in northern Scotland. I have known about the place for many years, but had not had the opportunity to visit until a couple of weekends ago. I was curious to see what was there. I had heard the myths about the founders and how the earth […]
