I used the loaf tin for a #rye #bread. This is a hefty one: 2.3kg. #sourdough #baking

Art meets Finnish grainfarming or It takes a village to plant a rye field.
The Grand Finale (Part 2): Beer at the fire (burning the hut).

On the very last day of our project we gathered the people from the village to collectively burn the hut construction we had built as a place to meet on the rye field. The autumn storms had already knocked over one wall and now the old beams and other parts were piled up and then burned down while we all drank Finnish beer (#Sahti) made of our own rye. (The beer had been brewed by the Westphalian experimental beer brewer Ludger Schweer who has helped us in many previous projects).

Almost exactly 3 years ago we visited #Abramsgården for the first time. That visit was followed by several research stays and in August 2024 the field had been sown. And since then we returned regularly to perform, cook, bake and learn. We can´t thank the village enough, especially Per Johan Grannas and his wife Annika Grannas from #GrannasLandbruk - our farming consultant and the biggest support we could have wished for - for the tremendous backing during all the stages of the project, Sanna and Tommy Antill for the tractor, the help, the tools and for being such great neighbours, Abbe Berglund for his great harrowing job. All the other neighbours and villagers for teaching us so much about the Ostrobothnian culture and rye and especially for the participation in the project itself and our performances. We thank our hosts Dorothee Schulte-Basta and Peter Lüttge for the great trust they have placed in us. It was a wild ride!

The wood that has not burned will be used next year at the same spot for the Easter fire. Then the whole village will come together again.

LE FIN!

Art meets Finnish grainfarming or It takes a village to plant a rye field.
The Grand Finale (Part 1): Beer and bread in the bystugan.

We are back. For the last time in this project. To bring everything to a closure. We invited the village to the bystugan (building where the village meets regularly). We baked bread together with Pelle in the old bread oven, which was reactivated last year. The oven had to be preheated for three days.
The dough was prepared with our rye flour. And we served beer which was brewed for us by experimental brewer Ludger Schweer. He has already accompanied us in many projects. He made IPA and Sahti. Made from our rye flakes. It was a wonderful evening with beer, bread, friends and stories.

[PRESERVED // Rågens rike / Finland 2024-25 deals with the question of the identity-creating significance of rye for Finland - especially in the region of Vörå, resp. Ostrobothnia - and how this relationship can be reflected artistically ("Rågens rike" means "Kingdom of Rye" and describes this very region - Finlands granary) The project is hosted by Abramsgården in Vörå (Vöyri) in the Swedish speaking part of Finland, a cultural center in the countryside run by Dorothee Schulte-Basta and Peter Lüttge.

Meet us tonight at 6 p.m. at Bystugan i Andkil.
We will bake bread in the wood burning oven and serve beer brewed from our rye. Apart from that you can take home your own rye flour.

Seeded sourdough bagels ready for the final proofing. I used a Colorado starter, home milled Emmer and black flour, home milled pulses, sage, seaweed, lemon zest, very strong white Canadian flour plus mixed seeds.

Some thingts I made at work are going to the Bergdorf Goodman store on 5th Avenue Manhattan. Probably in a window. Nice to see them sticking with the red on red theme this year too.
I like the hand router- so useful for the electrode 90 degree holes and wiring and tucking transformers into the letters.
The Italian ruby red glass only threw some minor fits, but was slightly defective with the powder coating flaking off of every other tube, but other than that was fun to work with. SO red!

I am still baking bread. This is number 39.5- the second, older rye sourdough that I let get all tired an fermented an then partially revived with commercial yeast a day before baking. 1000g flour mass, wine cork for scale. It also has oats. This one turned out nice an big. I think I can push the fermentation even longer though for bread 40.5. The first mini bread will be a bread bowl.

@JamesAkers wow that looks neat! I wish I could go see it in New York when it's in the store

@earthscienceate you should be able to find them online. Here are last year's windows. I made things in the red and blue windows

@earthscienceate If it makes you feel any better, I usually plan on going to go see it, but alas, since I never shop there, and am usually not the one installing it, I typically dont get around to seeing it installed in person if it isn't up for a super long time.
