In 2021, I was invited by Stéphane Verlet-Bottéro to join forces in his research for dissident grains, in his residency at Cite International des Arts, in Paris. Stéphane
was fascinated by millet and other "small grains", considering them forgotten cereals, discarded by techno-scientific modernity, with an inherent embodiment of a continuous resistance to homogenization, imperialism and patriarchal oppression. Similarly to body weather practice, a practice of resistance towards fixation and commodification of the dancing body, we joined forces to lead a body weather laboratory in a millet farm in St. Hubert, Nantes.
