HIMMELI II

In the frame of our project PRESERVED // Rågens rike / Finnland 204/25 we dealt with the traditional himmeli objects that are made of rye straw and are now used as a traditional Christmas decoration. In the former days they would be used to ask for a good harvest. In our winter chapter (November 2024) we asked the people of the area where our project is taking place (Vörå in Finland-Sweden) to join us to create a huge himmeli by using light tubes. The village came and in joint forces the ephermeral himmeli installation was created.

The whole project is carried out with the help of the village.

Our next stay will take place soon, stay tuned.

The Sausage Show
Still Life with six Pork Sausages with garden vegetables in red tray (diptych)

The sausage, king of factory farming. King of greenhouse gas emissions, of danger to public health from transmission of zoonoses and of poor living conditions of pigs, cattle, and chickens. The king’s passing is just a matter of time. The sausage is dead. Long live the sausage.

This is the first post of the art project PRESERVED by Scheibe & Güntzel (Jan Philip Scheibe and Swaantje Güntzel) on PixelFed. We will use this account to cover our project related trips and the project itself.

The participartory project PRESERVED was initiated in 2009 and has since been presented in different places in Europe. The goal of „PRESERVED“ is to analyse the relationship of the people of a certain region with their surrounding environment and to find out by the means of art in which way the nature of the area has nourished people in the past and nowadays. The project deals with the history of a place, its traditions, customs and social realities and offers an important contribution to political discourse in the wake of increasing sensitivity towards ecological themes in the present.
