Artist Picnic with Lucía Madriz
From 9 June until 5 July 2026, Lucía Madriz is artist in residence at Framer Framed Noord. On Friday 12 June, to inaugurate the completion of her installation Nutrigenetic, Framer Framed Noord hosts an Artist Picnic with Lucía Madriz, including a shared dinner and official opening, followed by a communal lunch on Saturday 13 June, with meals prepared by Karam Keuken and de Buurtkeuken.
From 9 to 11 June, Lucía Madriz works on her installation Nutrigenetic, a composition of grains and seeds made to look like DNA B from above. The work is completed by 12 June and on display until 5 July. Through this artwork, Madriz foregrounds the need for societies to shift their priorities: away from endless growth and profit, and toward health, sustainability and the protection of life. Industrial agriculture has a harmful impact on land as well as its people. In fact, it is largely responsible for climate change and the harsh, violent conditions of agricultural workers.
To celebrate the completion of the installation, Artist Picnic with Lucía Madriz takes place on 12 and 13 June. The event features communal meals held around the installation and an open conversation with the neighbourhood about the work and its themes. Meals are prepared by volunteer residents from Karam Keuken and De Buurtkeuken, using recipes inspired by the beans featured in the artwork.
