(english version on slides 4&5) 1/2 Mardi 29 septembre, La rentrée, des nouvelles et du renouveau L’entrée en automne s’est fait depuis une petite semaine, et l’atelier a fait sa rentrée, entre les levers du soleil rosés, et le bruit des premières pluies d’automne clapotant sur les vélux de mon atelier. J’ai été silencieuse par ici depuis le début de l’année 2026, pour cause de force majeure, pour raison de santé. J’ai dû mettre atelier colza entre parenthèse et en pause - pour une durée indéterminée. J’ai doucement repris le chemin de l’atelier depuis cet été, grâce, et avec de beaux projets sur-mesure et des collaborations que je partagerai ici ces prochaines semaines. Merci infiniment à toustes celles et ceu qui m’ont fait appel, et qui avait toujours Atelier colza dans un coin de leur tête. C’est une expérience, de mettre son activité sur pause, lorsque l’on est à son compte. Sans savoir quand j’allais pouvoir le reprendre et de quelle manière. Le monde actuel et sa frénésie m’ont fait croire que le projet disparaitrait à mesure que la communication sur les réseaux disparaîtrait. Mais la vie m’a prouvé le contraire, tout comme cette année, la vie a dézingué pas mal de mes croyances. Cette rentrée est aussi un nouveau souffle pour Atelier colza, car je reprends officiellement les reines du projet en solo, après plusieurs années accompagnée par ma maman. Le choix fait suite à de longues réflexions et discussions, et date de l’automne dernier. Mais la vie de m’a pas permis de l’annoncer plus tôt. C’est un choix mûri et en conscience, et nous avons fait le choix de préserver et prioriser notre relation personnelle mère-fille (car oui ça n’est pas toujours évident de collaborer en famille, bonjour la vraie vie !) au regard de notre relation professionnelle. Je l’ai déjà fais personnellement, mais j’ai envie de te témoigner ici publiquement, maman, toute ma gratitude pour ton soutien, ton accompagnement et ton talent pour ces dernières années au sein d’atelier colza. Merci pour toute ton énergie, tes idées, et ton sens du détail qui t’es unique, que tu as insufflé. Et j’ai aussi une pensée spéciale pour @mariecmattei, en cette rentrée. 2/2 Cela change don

Cuisine Banale // Project Booklet 📍 Sanem – LU • Published as a bilingual edition (English / French) and risoprinted at @bridderhaus – thanks to the precious support of Valérie Tholl and Remo Bei – the Cuisine Banale booklet extends the project beyond the mobile kitchen itself. Conceived as both a companion and an archive, it gathers the references that have shaped the project from its inception. The publication includes a text retracing the conception of Cuisine Banale and its reflections on traces, food, collective transformation, and material reuse. It also features 'the dinner party' – an original poem by poet and gardener Dana Zoutman (@morgennacht), accompanied by a French translation by Margaux Bricler, which unfolds the long temporalities hidden within every shared meal. Alongside these texts, the booklet presents illustrations of the mobile kitchen, detailed descriptions of its five interconnected modules, and information about the artistic team behind the project. Produced in a limited printed edition, the booklet was conceived as a physical object accompanying the project. For those interested, a digital PDF version is also available, allowing the texts, illustrations, and documentation of Cuisine Banale to circulate beyond the contexts in which the mobile kitchen is activated. • Edited by d-o-t-s (Laura Drouet / Olivier Lacrouts) Guest author (poem): Dana Zoutman Translation (poem): Margaux Bricler Graphic design by @ateliernomcommun Drawings & visuals: Atelier nom commun based on 3D models by Breanne Johnson, LoaraLaora (Illustration p.13) Paper: Cyclus Offset 80gr, Reclaimed Kraft Paper (kindly donated by Heintz Imprimerie) Typefaces: ABC Marist (@abcdinamo) & Ready Active (@plain_form) Printed at Bridderhaus (Esch-sur-Alzette, LU) – thanks to @val_erietholl & Remo Bei 1st edition, May 2026 Production: Gemeng Suessem Images & texts © 2026 – the artists & authors

Cuisine Banale // Shade Module 📍 Sanem – LU • One of the five elements that make up the Cuisine Banale mobile kitchen, the Shade Module brings the different components of the kitchen together. Made from reclaimed vintage cotton bedsheets and cotton-linen fabrics, this lightweight textile canopy unfolds above the modules to create a shared space for cooking, eating, and gathering. Through a simple system of tension and deployment, the structure adapts to different configurations and contexts while providing shade, comfort, and protection. More than a shelter, the Shade Module establishes a temporary centre around which collective activities can emerge. By filtering light and defining a common space, it transforms a collection of individual structures into a convivial environment where meals, conversations, and encounters can take place. More broadly, Cuisine Banale is a mobile kitchen composed of five interconnected modules built primarily from reclaimed materials collected through local recycling networks and previous artistic projects. Inspired by the Panamanian anti-waste recipe ‘terremoto con derrumbe’ and the medieval system of ‘banalités’, the project reimagines the kitchen as a contemporary commons: a place where materials, recipes, stories, and people come together through acts of cooking, sharing, repair, and transmission. • Concept & curation: d-o-t-s Design: @beaijo, @ateliernomcommun Metal work & consulting: Pascal Reinert, Andy Peters, Pol Thiry Textile design: @eleonore.grignon Food design: @mangerausoleil Coordination: d-o-t-s Production: @gemengsuessem Thanks: David Hengen, Alice Zehner, Olivier Schiltgen, Christophe Mossong, Susanne Egert, Cliff Schmit, Steve Ginepri, David Kayser, Sarah Raparoli, Pascal Reinert, Andy Peters, Pol Thiry, Patrick Falkenstein, Yan Neves, Sébastien Kanarek, Valérie Tholl, Remo Bei, Dijana Engelmann, Zinel Ramdani, Mariet Nelissen Schmitz, Elfida Del Carmen, the Lights team, Caroline Heintz. 📷 Olly Cruise (1-4) & @finestfiasco (5-7)

Cuisine Banale // Compost Module 📍 Sanem – LU • One of the five elements that make up the Cuisine Banale mobile kitchen, the Compost Module is its symbolic and operational heart. Combining a composting system with an embedded archive, it welcomes food residues as well as fragments of collective memory. Built from reclaimed plexiglass, metal rods, a stainless-steel cupboard door, cart wheels and bins, it creates a space where organic matter and stories can continue to evolve. Whenever someone uses the mobile kitchen, they are asked to fill a standard envelope provided by the municipality with recipes, memories, grocery lists, photographs, notes, or other contributions. The envelope is sealed and deposited in the archive – the transparent box at the top of the module. Over time, these fragments will form a collective repository that remains closed until a future return of d-o-t-s, when its contents will be reopened and transformed into a new work – a publication, exhibition, another collective project… More broadly, Cuisine Banale is a mobile kitchen composed of five interconnected modules built primarily from reclaimed materials collected through local recycling networks and previous artistic projects.

Cuisine Banale // Wash Module 📍 Sanem – LU • One of the five elements that make up the Cuisine Banale mobile kitchen, the Wash Module organizes washing and cleaning. Built from a reclaimed sink, garden hose, metal baskets, wheels, and salvaged metal rods, it functions as a maintenance station where tools, surfaces, and materials are rinsed off and cared for. Rather than treating maintenance as a secondary activity, the module highlights care as an essential part of collective life. Connected to a public water source for its supply, it deliberately relies on a simple bucket system to collect wastewater, which must then be emptied by hand. This low-tech arrangement makes water consumption visible and tangible, fostering a greater awareness of how much water is being used and encouraging careful practices around both use and disposal. It also invites attention to the cleaning products that enter the water cycle, reinforcing a broader sense of responsibility toward shared resources.

Cuisine Banale // Fire Module 📍 Sanem – LU • One of the five elements that make up the Cuisine Banale mobile kitchen, the Fire Module concentrates on heat-based processes. It supports firing, grilling, and smoking, within a single structure. Built from reclaimed gas bottles, an oil barrel, metal rods, and hemp rope, it transforms industrial remnants into a cooking device where fire becomes both a practical tool and a social catalyst. With its distinctive raw character, it adds a steampunk note to the ensemble. At the centre of gatherings, the Fire Module activates the kitchen through transformation. It features a custom-designed swivelling grill, facilitating a communal choreography of handling, turning, and cooking over fire. Ingredients change texture and flavour, while conversations, encounters, and shared experiences emerge around the warmth of the cooking process. Its performative character makes cooking visible and collective, turning meal preparation into a public event rather than a hidden task.

Cuisine Banale // Preparation Module 📍 Sanem – LU • One of the five elements that make up the Cuisine Banale mobile kitchen, the Preparation Module was designed as a versatile workspace. It brings together cutting, assembling, cooking, and storage functions within a single adaptable structure. Built from reclaimed plexiglass, polycarbonate offcuts, metal rods, a vintage camping stove, and various salvaged components, it transforms discarded materials into a practical and flexible kitchen station. Its transparent and open surfaces make every action visible, revealing the construction methods of the structure itself. Storage spaces, worktops, and cooking equipment coexist within a framework that can continuously adapt to different uses and situations. Custom-built plywood boxes serve simultaneously as storage for cutlery, plates, glasses, trivets, and maintenance tools, while also functioning as stackable steps that facilitate the installation of the kitchen’s textile canopy.

Cuisine Banale 📍 Sanem – LU • We're happy to share more about Cuisine Banale, the multidisciplinary project developed with Breanne Johnson, Eléonore Grignon, Quentin Gaudry, and Sarah Hornung during a three-week residency hosted by Gemeng Suessem. Born from collective discussions around hospitality, memory, and circularity, the project consists of a mobile kitchen made of five modules built primarily from reclaimed materials and leftovers from previous art installations. Inspired by the medieval system of banalités – shared infrastructures such as communal ovens and mills – Cuisine Banale reimagines the kitchen as a contemporary commons. Designed as both a functional cooking space and a mediation tool, it hosts gatherings where food becomes a medium for exchange. The kitchen also serves as a living archive, collecting recipes, traditions, and food memories shared by its users. On May 30, Cuisine Banale was inaugurated during a festive public event. For the occasion, the team prepared a homemade three-course menu and drinks using local ingredients. Inspired by traditional Luxembourgish recipes – and the Panamanian ‘terremoto con derrumbe’ broth which nourished the project – the meal activated the mobile kitchen through a joyful collective experience. Now owned by the Municipality of Sanem and available to its inhabitants, Cuisine Banale enters a new chapter as a shared municipal tool – a place to cook, gather, and share stories around food. • Concept & curation: d-o-t-s Design: @beaijo, @ateliernomcommun Metal work: Pascal Reinert, Andy Peters, Pol Thiry Textile design: @eleonore.grignon Food design: @mangerausoleil Coordination: d-o-t-s Production: @gemengsuessem Material & service providers: SIVEC, Gutt Geschier, Gilbert, Hoffmann’s, @dijana_engelmann, Batiself Thanks: David Hengen, Alice Zehner, Olivier Schiltgen, Christophe Mossong, Susanne Egert, Cliff Schmit, Steve Ginepri, David Kayser, Sarah Raparoli, Pascal Reinert, Andy Peters, Pol Thiry, Patrick Falkenstein, Yan Neves, Sébastien Kanarek, Valérie Tholl, Remo Bei, Dijana Engelmann, Zinel Ramdani, Mariet Nelissen Schmitz, Elfida Del Carmen, the Lights team, Caroline Heintz. 📷 @finestfiasco

[INAUGURATION] Cuisine Banale 🗓 30.05.2026 // 12:00—15:00 📍 Gäert Matgesfeld, 1 Matgeswee, 4490 Sanem – LU • Chèr•es ami•es au Luxembourg (et régions voisines), Nous avons le plaisir de vous inviter au lancement de Cuisine Banale – un projet artistique pluridisciplinaire qui explore l’acte de cuisiner comme médium culturel, relationnel et écologique. Pensé dans la continuité de notre précédente collaboration avec la commune de Sanem autour des anciennes serres de Soleuvre (2021–2022), Cuisine Banale a été réalisé au cours d’une résidence de création de trois semaines avec les artistes et designers Breanne Johnson, Eléonore Grignon, Quentin Gaudry et Sarah Hornung. Au cœur du projet se trouve une cuisine mobile réalisée principalement à partir de matériaux de réemploi (grâce à la collaboration avec le centre de recyclage SIVEC – Schifflange). Pensée comme un outil municipal partagé, cette cuisine pourra accueillir de futurs ateliers, repas collectifs et initiatives publiques autour de l’alimentation. Plus qu’un simple objet fonctionnel, elle a été imaginée comme une plateforme de transmission et d’archive vivante de récits, recettes et mémoires liés à la nourriture. Nous vous invitons à venir célébrer la clôture de notre résidence et l’inauguration de Cuisine Banale ce samedi 30 mai, de 12h00 à 15h00, au Gäert Matgesfeld (1 Matgeswee, 4490 Sanem – LU), autour d’un moment festif et gourmand ouvert à toutes et à tous : mises en bouche et buvette artistiques préparées par l’équipe à partir d’ingrédients locaux. Nous espérons vous voir nombreux•ses à Sanem ! Au plaisir, Olivier & Laura • Design: @beaijo, @ateliernomcommun Metal work & design consulting: Pascal Reinert, Andy Peters, Pol Thiry Textile design: @eleonore.grignon / @ateliercolza Food design: @mangerausoleil Coordination: d-o-t-s Production: @gemengsuessem Material & service providers: @sivec_recycling (reclaimed materials), Gilbert (metal), Hoffmann’s Bois (plywood), @dijana_engelmann (clay firing) Poster graphic design by Atelier nom commun

Conserver est politique ✊️ Les bocaux ne sont pas un simple folklore domestique. Derrière eux se cache, à mon sens, un acte de résistance et de liberté. Beaucoup de choses ont changé depuis nos grands-mères : l’accès facilité aux recettes, des vies plus remplies, l’émancipation des femmes du foyer. Conserver n’est plus l’apanage d’un rôle féminin et dépasse toute vision romantique ou nostalgique du passé. C’est aujourd’hui un geste conscient et revendiqué, un mode de vie en phase avec les défis de notre temps.  Car remplir ses bocaux, c’est reprendre la main sur son alimentation et sur son temps, comprendre ce que l’on mange et renouer avec des gestes qui donnent du sens à nos repas. Ralentir. Choisir de jardiner, cueillir, cuisiner, plutôt que de subir le rythme effréné d’une société capitaliste et marchande. Savourer le plaisir de faire soi-même dans un monde où tout s’achète déjà transformé. Mais surtout, c’est un choix politique au service d’une transition écologique désirable. En luttant contre le gaspillage et en mettant en lumière les richesses locales et saisonnières, les conserves maison tracent la route d’une résilience gourmande ! 🫙🥬🌼 Dans mon nouveau livre aux @editionsulmer, je partage mes techniques et recettes favorites pour conserver les saisons et inviter les bocaux à table ! 📙 Faire ses bocaux, @resiliences_livres 📸 @eleonore.grignon

Brousse du rove avec des gouttes de koso de poire et reine des près sous le soleil de Marseille 🌞 Un accord pour célébrer la sortie du livre de @noemiemalaize « Faire ses bocaux » avec les délicates photographies de @eleonore.grignon aux @editionsulmer ✨ Pour le koso : Dans un grand bol, mélangez les peaux de poire propres avec un peu de reine-des-prés séchée, puis pesez le tout. Ajoutez le même poids en sucre et mélangez. Versez dans un bocal suffisamment grand pour faciliter le mélange, et couvrez-le d’un tissu ou d’un couvercle (non vissé). Remuez 2 fois par jour au début, puis 1 fois par jour quand le sucre est dissous. Au bout d’une semaine environ, le sirop s’est transformé en un liquide épais, intensément parfumée! Filtrez et mettez en bouteille. Cette mélasse se conserve au frigo.
