Church Goin Mule

Art and Connection of Place

Church Goin Mule is a southern artist who was born and raised across the South, her kinfolk came from the mountains, though she lives in the swamp of Louisiana now. Church Goin Mule's work is a memory jug, a death-vase mash of the collective southern past, pearls and rusted nails, song and story, lore and loss. The mule is our common ground, the creature that every man, woman and child of all origin knew, in a time before t-models and tractors. In a time of remarkable and perhaps increasing polarity, the mule is our grounding rod, pointing to not a better past, but a different one. The blues was born behind a plowing mule.
