Cora Rose Nimtz
Log Cabin St Patrick St, 2023
Embroidery on quilt
36 × 15.5 in.
Expanding on the theme of log cabins and home, the artist seeks out notions of home and ghosts of lived experiences. A well-manicured but outdated home on St. Patrick St. in New Orleans explores themes of death and symbolism for the artist, whose father died of substance abuse on St. Patrick’s Day.
The quilt is distorted to an unusual shape, heightening thoughts of the passage of time and our quest to find the familiar while pressing on into the future.
