Aspart of the In Vivid Color exhibition in Fall 2020 and to honor its tenth anniversary in Charlotte’s city center, the Mint Museum Uptown has added Foragers by the Oklahoma City native Summer Wheat to its public atrium. This monumental “stained glass” installation celebrates the resilience of North Carolina’s community of makers and providers and creates a space where our present- day Charlotte community can gather for contemplation and inspiration. Collaging sheets of colored vinyl, Wheat has created a towering, prismatic composition that fills all 96 windows of the Mint atrium with female figures of varied sizes, ages, shapes, and races performing acts of labor: fisherwomen, beekeepers, hunters, mothers, caretakers, farmers, bankers.
