habitat of dissent, 2021 / clay, bricks, fire

habitat of dissent

started and implemented in Gessnerallee in 2021 by rah naqvi and pankaj tiwari.

during their residency in Zurich, they sew a tent, build a clay oven to cook food for the public, sing a posie of resistance and travel the city. over and over, rhythmic in the form of spoken words, shared food, stitches, and tired feet. In the end, as exhaustion seeped through, the aftermath of resistance shows. But they hold each other, together having built a cycle of care, warmth, protection, and food, a habitat for dissent is created.
