Answering to the invitation of contemporary art museum Palais de Tokyo[1], The Soft Protest Digest took part of “Le Banquet”, a dinner introducing the museum's new exhibition “Futur, ancien, fugitif”, dedicated to the “french art scene”. Taking place on November 20th 2019, the collective served an entre-met[2] and a dessert to the 150 guests of the dinner, titled respectively “Spore” and “Pollen”.

Each of the two dishes served as the illustration of a problematic related to the impact of small, often disregarded, organisms on the environment.

To that end, “Spore” aimed to address the various invisible uses of fungi and yeast in the production of food, as well as its prevalence and effects on our planet's ecosystems (🔗click here for more info). “Pollen”, on the other hand, focused on the current collapse of our biodiversity through the prism of the bee (🔗click here for more info). This dish led the collective to meet and work with beekeeper Julien Perrin, as well as biologist and researcher Fanny Rybak. Both were featured in a podcast recorded for the occasion.
