Cathy

Cathy is a fiber artist and dyes a lot of fabric. She had been planning to downsize her studio this spring. She had even gotten fabric out to have an art sale. When the first Front Yard Art Show Lexington was announced, she sewed together a bunch of fat quarters, then cut them into strips. Her piece has 70 strips total, 10 of each color. Cathy ties a knot to represent every day that passes since the start of the pandemic.

Lexington in the Time of COVID-19 is an artwork about people practicing social distancing at a time of a deadly virus. And also offering kindness.

Kurt Gohde and Kremena Todorova capture photographs at the periphery of American culture, where drag queens, discarded couches, and abandoned motel signs exist.
