Artist Spotlight Amy Seidel has had an adventurous life. Her lastest adventure started when living in New Orleans. Awoken late at night, the waters were rising quickly from Katrina. With only enough time to fill a backpack and grab her two dogs, she started making her way to the Astrodome. She was only permitted to enter if she abandoned her animals. This was unacceptable to her. She and a friend managed to convince a taxi driver to take them to another city to get to a car that a friend had left for them to escape. Just in time, as the bridge they crossed later collapsed. After locating the car and keys, they proceded but could not find a place to stay as everything was already booked from other survivors. They traveled non-stop to Hendersonville, NC where Amy's parents live. Much to her parents relief she arrived rattled but physically unharmed. She lost all her possesions and the balance of her art and metal working eqipment. We are proud to have two of her surviving works - XR2 and Fantasy Building. It is very interesting to note the different style of work from before Katrina to after. Life has improved for Amy, she now resides in Asheville, NC where she is rebuilding her life and art. |
