Culture and Starters: S.E. Nash’s Cultural Inquiry Through Fermentation
Culture and Starters: S.E. Nash’s Cultural Inquiry Through Fermentation
Etta Sandry takes a microscopic view of the concept of culture in the work of S. E. Nash While listening to an interview with the artist S.E. Nash and other fermentation enthusiasts on an episode of KCUR’s program Central Standard, I was struck by the use of the word “culture.” Taken from the Merriam-Webster English Dictionary online, the definition of “culture” in a scientific context is the act…

"Brooklyn's Vincent Como and Baltimore artist and musician Terence Hannum contribute works that visually represent the experience of sound. Como used a copy machine to make "Descent," building up thick black toner on the surface of white paper. He arranges the 10 sheets that make up "Descent" in an upside-down pyramid that suggests downward movement.
Hannum paints candles and amps in white gouache on pentagon-shaped pieces of black paper. On a recent sunlit Saturday afternoon, with street traffic filtering past the windows at the front of the downtown gallery, the Paragraph seemed miles away — both geographically and atmospherically — from the Nordic landscapes inspiring much of this exhibit's works. But with the droning sounds of Ural Umbo on the record player in the background, the wispy flames of Hannum's candles seemed almost to quiver."
