Mushrooms of us
Sunday Mushrooms walk in Berlin Parks
This is a performance without performers, while everyone is performing.
It’s a guided adventure with live-fed audio that narrates the story of existence. Having mushrooms on our heads, we navigate the mundane jungle and interact with the public in our own trance. Crossing all the boundaries, we explore the reality through a different lens.
There’s no factor dictating where this trip goes. As mushrooms, we acquire the world as our stage, the buildings and trees are our scenery, our presence is the performance. Anonymously, we let go of our self-obsession and connect with each other.
