Title
Three Truths And A Teichert
Artist
Kirsten Beitler
Medium
Painting - Oil On Panel
Description
Learning more about the history of the church I grew up in and how it impacted this state we all live in has been both shattering and liberating. As with all things on this earth, there are many truths believed and experienced by many people. Sometimes those truths do not agree with each other, but that does not invalidate the truth of those experiences and beliefs.
This painting came together as I studied those opposing truths, watched racial tensions unfold, and was party to the protest around removing original Minerva Teichert murals from the LDS Manti Temple.
The painting is my attempt to honor Teichert as a woman and artist, my pioneer ancestors who believed they were living a miracle, indigenous peoples of the area who understood the land and its’ patterns but had it all taken from them, and the original black “saints” who didn’t live to see their promised blessings.
Each living a truth.
