Directions

At Bonbon Tè Majik – Bake Sale! by lumbung artists Atis Rezistans | Ghetto Biennale Lafleur & Bogaert produce and sell edible magical mud cakes and candy made from clay from the Großalmerode clay pit near Kassel. While the myth exists that people in Haiti have had to resort to eating dirt due to extreme poverty, the reality is that mud cakes, or ‘bonbon tè’, have traditionally been used as a dietary supplement—typically during pregnancy, due to the mineral content of the mud.

For documenta fifteen, Lafleur & Bogaert will make mud cakes in their yellow trailer in the garden of St. Kunigundis Church, experimenting with different recipes, flavours, motifs, and designs. Michel Lafleur (Haiti) and Tom Bogaert (Belgium) are two artists who work together as the collaborative art duo Lafleur & Bogaert. They began creating art together in 2013 when they met at the third edition of the Ghetto Biennale in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.
