Painting is a wonderful form of self-expression that allows us to unleash our creativity and produce beautiful works of art. But what if I told you that there was a unique way to create art using an unlikely ingredient: yeast? Yes, you read that right! Painting with yeast is a fun and creative way to explore new artistic techniques.

One of the most interesting aspects of painting with yeast is that you cannot see your art until some days of incubation. Unlike traditional paints, yeast is alive it needs to grow at ideal temperature and nutrients. As the yeast grows and expands, it creates a textured surface that adds depth and interest to the painting. This means that every painting is unique and has its own character. The incubation time of the yeast creates an element of surprise and excitement in the painting process.

In addition to creating beautiful works of art, painting with yeast also has practical applications. Yeast is commonly used in scientific research, and painting with yeast can be a fun and educational way to learn about the biological properties of this fascinating microorganism.

For all these amazing reasons, GSOC, GSS, GLO, GU, and BOGS decided to organized the Yeast Day!

One day with different type of fermented food–beer, wine, cheese, kombucha, kimchi, etc–and colored yeast. An amazing yeast-sensorial experience!. Here we share some Yeast Arts from some students:

Painting with yeast is a unique and exciting way to create art. The process is easy and fun, and the results are always surprising. Whether you’re an experienced artist or just starting out, painting with yeast is a great way to explore new artistic techniques and unleash your creativity.
