IntraRegionale 2026 / Insects in Art

Starting April 24, the 3rd IntraRegionale will take place in the Hannover region. As in 2015 and 2021, ten art institutions have joined forces to form a network and collaboratively create a major project.

“For the 3rd IntraRegionale 2026,’ the participating institutions have selected artists who engage with the theme ‘Art and Insects.’ The presentations will make use of both indoor spaces and outdoor areas for site-specific installations. Artists from Germany, France, Japan, and Switzerland will present current works and surprising perspectives on these fascinating creatures, or their perspectives on us humans. The exhibition program has been curated by nine Kunstvereine from the Hannover region and the Städtische Galerie Lehrte, which, following 2016 and 2021, once again invite visitors to exhibition spaces and outdoor art locations throughout the Hannover region.”

I have been invited by “Kunstraum Benther Berg” and will present an installation specially conceived for the occasion. The opening of my project will take place on May 17, 2026, at 11:00 AM.

Xover0's brand new invention in the tableware space, The Petite Bouchée Gummy Chalice, offers an alternative (or perhaps an addition) to specialized drinkware at the formal dining table. This ornate chalice style construct topped with a strikingly bold miniature throne presents the perfect platform for a bite sized confection.

For centuries humanity has been developing and refining the art of elegant tableware. Glassware in particular has exploded in its nuanced variations – with each beverage requiring its own specific vessel shape aiding in its portioning, presentation, and enjoyment.

Today, an increasing number of people are seeking alternatives to alcohol in social settings. So we at Xover0 took it as our solemn design duty to provide a vessel for one such alternative; one which integrates seamlessly into the formal table setting and elevates this alternative to the level and esteem that alcohol already holds.

The Petite Bouchée Gummy Chalice does just that: providing a stately frame for an alcohol-free food pairing; enhancing the experience of the meal and ambiance of the occasion, broadening the dinner service and making it more inclusive.

Crafted start to finish by artisans in rural Mississippi, the Petite Bouchée Gummy Chalice is available in your choice of solid sterling silver or unlaquered brass.
