Caelan Jeffery: Appalachia--Latch-not-Lay Exhibition

Caelan Jeffery's work is primarily designed to bring awareness to different social issues, to validate and invoke emotions, and hopefully to serve as an aide in processing through life. For this particular exhibition, over 20 works of art were imagined and created for the series “Appalachia, latch-not-lay.” All of the paintings are the exact same size and made of hand cut leather on a wooden frame. Mediums include shoulder stock leather, wood, spray paint, acrylics, watercolors, leather dyes, archival inks, brad tack nails, upholstery tacks, artificial sinew, studs, and fur.
