"Mud Office will be relocating to the unknown lands of Lindre-Basse. This move will provide Mud Office with a shared space (in place of its usual Franco-British division), allowing its members to focus on developing certain aspects of the organisation. This strategy (relocating in order to function) is the Mud Office's traditional way of working.

Two axes will be proposed:

1. Critical reflection on the art of retreat (leisure, business, culture and society) and the notions of escape, rurality, nature and the great outdoors.

2. Divide & re-divide. Use the retreat to reflect, evaluate, reconfigure and set new directions for the future of the MUD OFFICE production agency. We're going to do an expansion of function while creating an expansion function." Mud Office, created by English artists Charlie Jeffery and Dan Robinson in 2005, presents itself as a fictional organisation somewhere between bureaucracy and enterprise. A manifesto and rules define the objectives and operation of this "mud office". With mud, Mud Office appropriates a devalued material that it sees as an elementary organic component, from which it invents a language of diverse materials, actions and services. Mud Office sets up contexts for reflection, events and tools for joint action.
