"Turek's photographs don't try to form conclusions. They are totally without pretension. They linger on the pause between words, the silence of a snowstorm and the stillness between trees. Above all, Turek's images create the space for us to question our fixed assumptions about what Siberia is and isn't, was and wasn't, then and now. Above all, his work reflects an elusive region with accuracy and profound sensitivity." #photography

"Sweet potatoes aren't started by seed like most other vegetables, they're started from slips—small rooted pieces of tuber which are sliced right off the sweet potato. Not only are sweet potatoes very easy to grow, they are also drought- and heat-tolerant, and have few pests or diseases. The sweet potato is very nutritious and relatively low in calories." #gardening #foodsecurity
