Each year members of the U.S. House of Representatives conduct the Congressional Art Competition for High School Students, and this year Congressman Tom McClintock extended the invitation to high school students from Calaveras County. For this year's competition they sought works reflecting pride in our country, America’s symbols, icons, traditions and so forth. The selected piece is an oil painting called Braiding Hair by Meredith Grotto. There are decades of life to consider behind the detailed hands weaving the long, light hair. In many Indigenous communities the three strands of a braid represent 'mind', 'body', and 'spirit', and seeing as indigenous people's are the rightful owners of the land that was stolen from them as other people "discovered" it, we found Grotto's piece to be well suited for this year's Congressional Art Competition. Meredith Grotto has received Honorable Mention and her work will be shown at Congressman McClintock's Reception on May 3, at his Eldorado Hills office! Congratulations Meredith! |
