Vegetare *new* Video/Animation by Kbaumlier

 

I just completed a piece that I have been working on since June of 2010 called Vegetare (which is Latin for “to grow”) The piece features images of crops of cabbages, cauliflower, corn, tomatoes, and eggplant plants growing from seedlings to harvest.

Vegetare was filmed at Rainbow Farm, a local family farm in Madison, OH from June to September of 2010, and presents an intimate view of crops in their various stages of growth, and the cycle of life from planting to harvest.

Family farms were once a way of life throughout rural America, but today, many of these smaller farming operations are a thing of the past, rendered extinct due to financial hardships and other agricultural developments.

The music in the piece was composed and performed by Joshua Rodriguez and Mary Vanhoozer.
