Join the Firehouse Art Center in Longmont for an enlightening artist talk with Amy Lummus, the creator of the powerful exhibition "Spit and Splinters." This special event will take place on February 25, 2024. Lummus will guide attendees on a journey through her remarkable collection of large-scale interactive and kinetic sculptures, inspired by the stories of trauma shared by her female models. Through her unique artistic process of hammering, screwing, soldering, and fusing unfinished wood and frayed canvas, Lummus explores how materials can convey powerful narratives. The exhibition, which runs from February 9 to March 3, 2024, also includes two-dimensional works that express both the rawness of trauma and the tenderness of survival. The kinetic sculptures in "Spit and Splinters" blur the lines between sculpture and portraiture, inviting viewers to participate in the artworks through interactive elements. As attendees turn cranks and press buttons, they become part of the intricate journey from trauma to healing portrayed in Lummus's art. Although the moving elements may distort the overall image, the connection to the eyes of the model remains unbroken, leaving a lasting impact on the viewer. After the artist talk, there will be a Q&A session and a final artist walkthrough of the exhibit. Don't miss this opportunity to delve into the resilient narratives of survivors and experience the transformative power of art.
