Creating highly detailed illustrations, her semeiotic work explores nature’s unintentional influence on humanity’s past civilizations and the subsequent creation of mythologies, beliefs, and lore. From this grows her quiet soliloquy that evokes a natural empathy by virtue of viewing the juxtaposition between humanity’s past fears with modern angst.

“The pieces I create echo beliefs and lore and explore their human connections to nature. A new human connection is formed by tying past and present within a gathering of feather, fur, fins, symbolism, and feminine beauty.” – Carolina Lebar

Our local nonbinary and transgender community’s observance of the 20th International Transgender Day of Remembrance will be held in downtown Asheville, at Pritchard Park at 6:00 pm on Tuesday, November 20th. Volunteer attendees will take turns reading aloud the names of those lost to transphobic violence over the last year. This locally held event will be among many observances around the world.

The 20th annual Transgender Day of Remembrance will honor and memorialize transgender and gender variant victims of transphobic violence in the previous 12 months. The event was first held in 1999 to memorialize the death of Massachusetts transgender woman Rita Hester, whose murder remains unsolved. It has since grown into an international event to draw attention to the issue of anti-transgender violence and its disproportionate effect on transgender women of color.

Meet us at 5pm at the doors of the Civic Center and then join us in a march to Pritchard Park for the candle light vigil. Warm beverages will be provided, with a support gathering offered after the event: https://www.facebook.com/events/205709140322501/
