On Saturday, 27 September, the Fall Assembly opened with a walk to the garden of artist Wiebke Habbe. There, Daniela Zambrano Almidón guided participants through the making of a Huatia — a traditional Andean earth-oven used to cook potatoes with heated stones. The stones, collected from a nearby quarry, recalled both the deep time of the Pleistocene and today’s extractive mining activities in Schleswig-Holstein, as pointed out by Habbe. The collective preparation — cleaning stones and potatoes, lighting the fire, layering leaves and soil — became an act of shared work, care, and reflection. As the oven was sealed, Zambrano Almidón led a ritual of gratitude to the soil and the ancestors, adorning the mound with flowers. This gesture, however, sparked a moment of friction: Habbe resisted the use of industrially grown flowers on her pesticide-free soil, cultivated over many years as a space ofecological integrity. Through these exchanges, the Huatia emerged as more than a meal — a site of cultural memory, ecological awareness, and communal transformation.
