The Wunderbar Window Expo series continues withWORMnest: A Habitat for the Strange , offering a glimpse into a world where the Boomgaardstraat building is not just a space but a living, breathing organism. Its walls pulse, its liquids flow like lifeblood, and its guests become both hosts and parasites.
This is the Bar That Spreads, a shape-shifting entity that mutates with every gathering, expanding its influence like mycelium beneath the city streets.
Here, boundaries dissolve. Flesh & Fluid: Corpus WORM exposes the anatomy of nightlife, intestines turned outward, circuits tangled with viscera, and the heart made of the slick embrace of latex beating into the rhythm of the evening. Drinks spill like open wounds, conversations ferment in the air, and the bar itself digests the energy of its inhabitants.
Nothing remains contained. Spilled guts to spilled drinks, the chaos of existence unfolds – inside becomes outside, private blurs into public, and the night comes alive.
WORM invites you to peer through the glass, step inside, and let yourself be absorbed into its ever-shifting form.
About the artist:
Rebecca Schedler is a designer and researcher from Germany. She investigates complex relations between social, cultural, political, and environmental issues by exploring the intersection of design, art and science.
Her work deals with interspecies interactions, technology, taken-for-granted materials, such as mushrooms and shit, and how these could lead to a more shared and equal future. Through interactive objects and installations, she explores hidden systems, the unseen and the abject, which form a vital part of our environment and living space with their life, age, and death.
