Fermenting Archives: Microbial Matter as History Holder
by Eleonora Edreva & Leo Williams
In 2019, Ele and Leo were invited to contribute a submission to fermenting feminism (hunter’s moon), a publication put together by curator Lauren Fournier and designer Zille Bostinius after the culmination of the two-day exhibiton and programming of Fermenting Feminism (Hunter’s Moon) in Copenhagen, Denmark in 2018.
Fermenting Archives: Microbial Matter as History Holder was our collaborative response to exploring fermentation as a metaphor, fermentation as a physical and a material practice for preserving through transforming, fermentation as material-discursive and caring practices in/and the field of feminist art and literature.
