The installation-performance Mother Microbe by Meagan Crowe, Nadja Häfliger, and Elena Fabrikant centers on human-microbe connections. Participants reverence before a "Mother Microbe" figure, engaging with her through a stereoscope that shows microscopic footage, while listening to her monologue. This ritualistic interaction fosters reflection on the often invisible, yet essential, microbial world. It encourages visitors to develop a heightened sensitivity and awareness of microbes, often invisible yet essential to life.
