Baby, we need to talk: about concept. With her Conceptual Conversations, Tina Roeder has been hosting talks about design for several years. This expanded talk format — somewhere between exhibition, discursive space and presentation of work – originated in a group exhibition that Tina (also co-founder of the Conceptual Biennale) curated in 2023. Situated within design, close to art, and in dialogue with architecture, the format brings together international, Berlin-based positions that critically question structures and systems. She has welcomed a range of guests. Alongside more established figures in Berlin’s design scene, such as Sam Chermayeff, who prepared Live Snacks, there have been Anaïs Nyffeler and Jil Schuberth, who served cake suspended between sports equipment, and The Thing Magazine, which invited attendees to bring their favorite stolen object. There is no overarching theme. Each invited practice develops a presentation of its working context. CC13, taking place on 26.02.2026, brings together Fatma Cankaya and Inhwan Oh. Under the title 360 LIPO + BBL Package — design yourself!, they examine the body as a malleable object and identity as material of the present. Their point of departure lies in hyper-aestheticized body images shaped by transformation, celebrity culture and digital visibility. Up for discussion is the body as sculptural form, beauty as a deliberate statement, and identity as a designable project. As always, the invitation is to Tina’s home. Seats are limited. Let’s talk concept.
