Mammie’s Window
This home belonged to my great-grandmother in Kentucky, and has been vacant since her death in 1963. It is still in the family, slowly being overgrown by trees and deteriorating. Peering through the window, you might catch a rare glimpse of the past, as time has stood still.
Mammie’s Window is one of two entries I have in the juried exhibition “Rare Glimpse,” held by Arts DuPage, which takes place in the newly renovated space at North Central College’s Oesterle Library.
My other piece in Rare Glimpse is “Hello in There,” which appeared in multiple exhibitions in 2020. You can view this artwork and the story behind it at https://aurora.edu/museum/virtual-experiences/online-exhibits/lisa-youngdahl.html
The Rare Glimpse Exhibition will be held March 27 – May 5, 2023 at the Oesterle Library, North Central College, located at 320 School Street, Naperville, IL 60540. There is an artists reception on March 30, 5:00 – 7:30 pm.
