PPP
Coming spring, Sunflower Soup collective will call PPP to life, a Political Party for Potatoes and other beings. PPP could be a protorealist and compost-fordist pan-political project. It could be a practical party of provocation, with W139 as its platform. By planting potatoes, pulping paper, printing propaganda and producing pedagogical pots, the PPP could develop into a paraprofessional prototype for progressive procreation.
All pleaders, pencil pushers, pseudo-talkers and phrasemongers are welcome to contribute to a new proletariat of puberty at PPP. As well as being playful and speculative, PPP will be a real place of political imagination and connection. A platform for overlooked perspectives and a refuge for those who challenge the current political status quo.
Sunflower Soup was born out of a shared activist engagement and a need to explore what art can mean beyond the confines of the individual. In doing so, the collective is driven by a number of questions: Can a shared way of working contribute to a less detached experience of art? How do people relate to each other and to the more than human world? How do we reconcile the importance of activism with a poetic visual language that allows for humor, paradoxes and ambiguity?
PPP is supported by Fonds voor Cultuurparticipatie – Deelregeling Open Call cultuur voor klimaat.
