“I grew up in a Christian commune in South America with a group of European refugees from WWII and moved to the U.S. in 1961. I took my maternal grandmother’s maiden name as mine: Wilding. Alice Wilding was her name. I’ve always wished I had been named Alice. Why was I named ‘Faith’ when I am so full of doubt?”
Although not a Memphian, we're glad to have Faith Wilding as a guest in our city for a few days. Her work Fearful Symmetries is on exhibit at the Clough-Hanson Gallery (Rhodes College) from September 5 through October 10, 2014. She is currently working on a memoir.
