the late 19th century. Today,
it holds nearly 250,000 vol-

2. Welcome
to the
WOUNDED HOME
Exhibition
July 22, 2013-January 20, 2014
Lloyd Library and Museum pre-
sents Wounded Home, an exhibition that has
been in the making since 2011, when guest art
curator, Kate Kern, was invited to tackle the
topic of the Civil War for the 150th Commemo-
rative four-year cycle.
The resulting exhibition, Wounded
Home, takes its inspiration from a Victorian
era parlor ravaged by the losses and upheaval
of Civil War America. Combining the vocabu-
laries of an iconic household interior, including
Victorian customs of mourning and grief, with
text and images from the Lloyd’s collection of
Civil War resources, each artist has created a
facet of a poignant and disturbing room-within
-a-room in the Lloyd’s gallery space. Artists,
Mary Jo Bole, Debbie Brod, Jenny Fine, Saad
Ghosn, Celene Hawkins, Kate Kern, and Alice
Pixley Young, have been meeting regularly
since November 2011 and have created new
works specifically for this exhibition. Lloyd
materials used by the artists during their re-
search are also on display, inviting visitors to
make connections between the exhibition and
the sources of inspiration from the Lloyd’s vast
collection.
MARY JO BOLE

I created wallpaper that consists of square
images printed in multiples on a Vandercook
press. These surround a larger painting depict-
ing a family tree. This central image meshes
many aspects of my research without explana-
tion like the depicted image of an elephant;
troops called going into battle as “meeting the
elephant” for example. The paper has bits of
bark within it, enhancing a quality of impend-
ing chaos or decay.
DEBORAH BROD

My first thought when invited to draw from the
Lloyd Library’s rich collection of botanically-
based books for this Civil War/domestic parlor
exhibit: medicinal plants for healing. But as I
delved into the root causes of the war,
slavery took center stage: this antique table
appears wounded, or at least fragile, with one
leg broken. And the table covering won’t lay
flat: as if turned inside out, a tangle of viscera,
full of stories, fully exposed, and vulnerable.
JENNY FINE

Upon discovering early illustrations of skin
diseases in Dr. Walker’s scrapbooks and The
Photographic Atlas of Skin Diseases, I became in-
terested in making contemporary renderings
of diseases associated with the Civil War. I was
drawn to these early medical illustrations for
both their haunting presence and the process
in which they were made. Inclined to engage
in a similar form of creating, I photographed
three contemporary individuals. Drawing with
graphite and watercolors, I hand-altered the
final photographs.
SAAD GHOSN
Both my pieces address the issue of war and
that, irrespective of their stated motives, wars
always have other real, hidden motives that
deal with politics, control, domination, greed,
profit… Sadly, the result of every war is a
heavy human toll. One of the pieces, an installa-
tion, refers to the underestimated 620,000 indi-
viduals killed during the Civil War; the other, a
photomontage, merges images of Civil War in-
juries and destruction with religious iconogra-
phy, with the Lloyd Library providing the im-
ages of the wounded as a starting point.
CELENE HAWKINS
www.hawkinsandhawkins.biz
My piece explores the tragedy of industry and
wealth built on the subjugation of the African
peoples, and the attitudes embodied by D.A.
Tompkin's statement: "The white man loves to
control and loves the person willing to be con-
trolled by him. The negro readily submits to the
master hand, admires and even loves it. Left to
his own resources and free to act as his mind or
emotions dictate, no man can foresay what he is
liable to do."
KATE KERN

I came across the multi-volume set of the Medi-
cal and Surgical History of the War of the Rebellion
while searching for inspiration for another pro-
ject.
The photographs and prints of wounds and
wounded soldiers stayed with me, gradually
developing into an idea of using the deceptively
lush bullet entrance and exit wound image as
upholstery on a period piece of furniture. The
resulting Our Nation Mourns: Wounded Settee
places the horror of war inside the home of a
nation fighting itself.
ALICE PIXLEY-YOUNG

My research focuses on looking and longing
and the tension created when one is confined to
a specific place, role or identity. A cast glass
picture frame with video projection will show
long, meditative views of the Ohio River that
shift visually from the river’s Kentucky and
Ohio sides, marking departure and arrival
points for escaping slaves. Separately, an in-
stallation of cast glass lace collars mark the ab-
sence of the figure, and also become a signifier
of identity and place.
