Waiting Room was a project for Survival Kit / Umeå, a five week art festival arranged by the artist run gallery Verkligheten in Umeå, which included furnishing a waiting room in the University Hospital of Umeå (one of the festivals exhibition venues) with a fishless aquaponics system and literature related to geodesic dome architecture and aquaponics.

The waiting room at Survival Kit / Umeå connects to the organisations Green Free Will's and Earth Organisation for Sustainability's ongoing efforts to build a "biodome" in Lögdeå, a small village outside of Umeå in Northern Sweden. A biodome is a dome shaped greenhouse with an aquaponics system for fish farming and vegetable cultivation. The aim with the biodome in Lögdeå is to find sustainable and comfortable solutions for local food production all year round, even during the cold and dark winters in Umeå. The waiting room aimed to introduce the biodome to a wider audience, place the biodome in a historical and contemporary context, and examine geodesic dome architecture and aquaponics. The project also included facilitating a seminar about the biodome.
