From now on, autumn will settle over our field.
The fields have been harvested. We have ground the first grain, baked with it, made offerings to the grain spirit and appeased it. Now autumn is settling over the land. And we are taking rye flakes to brewers, flour to bakers and continue to think about what to do with the remaining 500 kg of rye that was harvested.
We will return once more in November. For the last time in this project, which has now been running for over a year. Then, together with the village, without which none of this would have been possible, we will consume what the field has given us all.
[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.
