Workshop The Order of Disappearance
By playField
What does mortality mean in a time when nothing ever truly disappears?
Join us in embroidering insects for The Order of Disappearance, a collective embroidery project developed as part of the artistic research project Don’t Forget to Die. Together, we will stitch insects associated with the natural decomposition of the body — symbols of transformation and rebirth.
As we work, we will share our research into transience, memory and digital traces. Through readings and shared reflections, the project creates a space for exchange and contemplation, exploring new forms of ritual and connection. Over the course of a year, the work will travel to different locations before culminating in an exhibition.
As an artist-in-residence at GUM & Botanical Garden, playField explores the intersections between art and science.
