Woven Wind

Woven Wind

Woven Wind is a multi-layered artistic endeavor grounded in critical research on the Lovell-Quitman archive, located at the William R. Laurie University Archives and Special Collections Library at Swanee, University of the South. Extensive plantation records, photographs, and objects found in the archive document the lives of the officer William Storrow Lovell and wife Antonia, whose father was John A. Quitman (1799 – 1858), a large slaveowner and former governor of Mississippi.
