Skillebyholm, 50 years of knowledge.

Skillebyholm is a meeting place, a centre for biodynamic farming, education and sustainable development, and celebrates 50 years this year.

With four activities scheduled over the year, Skillebyholm aims to create opportunities for people to meet, learn new things, develop a space for reflection and, of course, celebrate!

You can find the full programme at the Skillebyholm homepage.

As I study for two years (2011-2013) at the Skillebyholm College of Biodynamic Gardening, I photographed the daily activity at the College during four month, between January 9th to April 30th, 2012, with one Polaroid image a day.

Twelve images are presented here, in anticipation of spring and the return of light.

Skillebyholm est un lieu de rencontre, un centre pour l'agriculture biodynamique, l'éducation et le développement durable, qui fête cette année ses 50 ans.

Avec quatre activités programmées au cours de l'année 2024, Skillebyholm souhaite créer des opportunités de rencontres, permettre l'acquisition de nouvelles connaissances, développer un espace de réflexion et, bien sûr, faire la fête !

Le programme complet est disponible sur le site de Skillebyholm.

Au cours de mes deux années d'étude à l'école de jardinage et d’horticulture de Skillebyholm, j’ai photographié l’activité quotidienne à l’école pendant quatre mois avec une image Polaroid par jour, entre le 9 janvier et le 30 avril 2012.

Douze images sont présentées ici, dans l’attente du printemps et du retour de la lumière.
