I grew up with Mother of Silence. My mother Mary L. Vigil owned it.she contacted the local museum when she read about it in the local newspaper as being a lost piece of Agnes Pelton.

I hope last night's Agnes Pelton presentation will also be added to your CZcams channel! This is wonderful -- more Pelton please!

Thank you for sharing this discussion! I can’t visit the show, but this gives a good flavour of it, and I can go look Agnes Pelton up and learn more - she’s new to me. Wonderful work!

This was an inspiring show. So glad I got to see it. And hear all the background in your discussion on her life and her work as well. Thank you! - Meg
