Feature: Rune Bosse, artist and former participant at Institut für Raumexperimente, Tempus circularis Fagus sylvatica

Rune Bosse´s art focuses on the elementary experience of our natural surroundings in a protracted exploration of time, the tree and the herbarium. His work for the exhibition documents the different stages a tree passes through during a year-long cycle. Around every third week from april 2015 to april 2016 the artist cut a branch of a beech tree, planed it until it was 2-3 mm. This, then put it in a press to retain the colour of the branch at the precise time of year.

At Charlottenborg the tree has been reassembled and spread out again in its original shape, the different seasons meet and are interwoven, making the entire annual cycle of the tree visible simultaneously. The round shape becomes an image of cyclical time, as indicated by the title Tempus circularis Fagus sylvatica (circular time, common beech). – by Rhea Dahl and Mathias Kryger

Rune Bosse‘s installation in on show at Kunsthal Charlottenburg as part of annual exhibition by graduates from the Schools of Visual Arts at Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen.

Today via Instagram: Glacial rock flour garden, Versailles

The circular space in the middle of the Bosquet de la Colonnade is filled with a thick layer of moraine – granite that was ground into a fine grey powder over centuries by moving glaciers. The claylike material surrounds the sculpture of Pluto abducting Persephone, the goddess of fertility. The installation is one result of Eliasson’s ongoing dialogue with geologist Minik Rosing, who is developing plans to export moraine from Greenland to tropical and subtropical areas, where it can be used to revitalise the depleted soil, as it is a rich source of the mineral nutrients that sustain crops and other plants.

Studio kitchen research trip: Fermentation workshop with Sandor Ellix Katz at Camilla Plum’s farm Fuglebjerggaard

By Sandor Ellix Katz aka Sandorkraut

Wild fermentation is a way of incorporating the wild into your body, becoming one with the natural world. Wild foods, microbial cultures included, possess a great, unmediated life force, which can help us adapt to shifting conditions and lower our susceptibility to disease. These microorganisms are everywhere, and the techniques for fermenting with them are simple and flexible.

Wild fermentation involves creating conditions in which naturally occurring organisms thrive and proliferate. Fermentation can be low-tech. These are ancient rituals that humans have been performing for many generations. They are a powerful connection to the magic of the natural world, and to our ancestors, whose clever observations enable us to enjoy the benefits of these transformations.

By eating a variety of live fermented foods, you promote diversity among microbial cultures in your body. Biodiversity, increasingly recognized as critical to the survival of larger-scale ecosystems, is just as important at the micro level. Call it microbiodiversity. Your body is an ecosystem that can function most effectively when populated by diverse species of microorganisms. By fermenting foods and drinks with wild microorganisms present in your home environment, you become more interconnected with the life forces of the world around you. Your environment becomes you, as you invite the microbial populations you share the earth with to enter your diet and your intestinal ecology.

Wild fermentation is the opposite of homogenization and uniformity, a small antidote you can undertake in your home, using the extremely localized populations of microbial cultures present there, to produce your own unique fermented foods. What you ferment with the organisms around you is a manifestation of your specific environment, and it will always be a little different. Do-it-yourself fermentation departs from the realm of the uniform commodity. Rediscover and reinterpret the vast array of fermentation techniques used by our ancestors. Build your body’s cultural ecology as you engage and honor the life forces all around you.
