Jen Smith, formerly of Bratmobile and The Quails, alleged coiner of the term riot grrrl and ‘zine maker extraordinaire is preserving the DIY spirit of Riot Grrrl. Smith has turned her hands to pickling.

Now based in LA, Jen Smith works as a caterer and pickler under the sobriquet Full Moon Pickles.  You can keep track of Jen Smith’s pickle riot on her blog, http://www.fullmoonpickles.blogspot.com/ Where Smith posts beautiful photos of her creations,  as well as lyrics that are currently inspiring her and videos. 

Artist Smith looks upon her pickling venture as another art form, “As an artist, I am looking at the way that an object can signify a larger social, political history - the discursive field that surrounds it. This is how I think about pickles.” Think about that next time you pop a pickle.
