KINSHIPS
kinShips is a tribute to the extended family (kin). A celebration of the symbiotic allied organisms that envelop us on a daily basis and protect us from intruders. The project invites the audience into the microscopic of the skin, to an embracing universe of microbial movement. kinShips explore reciprocal coexistence and exchange.
kinShips is made for 0-3 year old’s with their adults. The journey takes place in your own (kin)ship; a huge single-celled bacterium with room for you and your self-chosen family.
