Homecoming

"We hadn't forgotten her, we didn't know she was here. The tragedy of her life may have become her ultimate salvation. The spirit of Edith Lake Wilkinson has come home."

Edith was part of a group of artist who assembled in the seaside community of Provincetown, Massachusetts on the tip end of Cape Cod in the early decades of the 20th century. Unable to return to Europe due to the first world war they were drawn into a creative vortex which essentially became a "Crucible of American Modernism". I have opined that the technique of creating wax resist textiles such as batik was their inspiration to create the "White Line" woodblock print also known later as the "Provincetown Print".

She certainly deserves the recognition she was denied during her lifetime.
