To all the Critters in my Fridge is a perfomative, musical installation. Inspired by the object fridge, as something banal and at the same time as an example of how man dominates his environment, mars travel agency takes a look at all that can unfold in the ruins of a broken fridge. Through soundscapes, video projections and language, this seemingly unspectacular place is explored. The audience experiences a dense present full of connecting lines and relationships, full of dying and living. The refrigerator is transformed into a container for fantastic stories from a world where humans live in equal kinships with animals, plants, fungi, bacteria, protists and viruses. As an interface between performance and concert, installation and biology class, Fridge sees itself as a collective, polyphonic art project that places the non-human creatures "the critters" at the center of consideration. For are we not all simply compost.
