It\u2019s hard to write that down, because even as I write it I can feel my readers turning away! What I really mean is that my \u2018thoughts\u2019 are all in pictures\u2014 images and colors, shapes and patterns that move across my mind in a continuous dance. When I was invited back to the Mount St. Francis Gallery, I knew that here I could safely tell my own stories, weave my own inner visions down onto the fabrics.<br aria-hidden=\"true\" \/><br aria-hidden=\"true\" \/>There was little thought put into what I would portray\u2026rather, it was a freedom to simply open the heart and let the fabrics flow. There are no surprises here, no hidden messages\u2014 rather it is a virtual diary of how\u00a0 I \u2018felt\u2019 during this past year of artistic freedom.<br aria-hidden=\"true\" \/><br aria-hidden=\"true\" \/>If I am asked to choose a piece to sum it up, I would say it\u2019s \u2018Christ with Hawk and Dragonflies\u2019. I chose this piece because to me it\u2019s a perfect blend of gentleness and courage. It sums up the way I try to walk through Life as my own body wends its way through its last few years and looks toward the Heavens.<\/p>\n<p>Exhibit Runs: October 25th &#8211; November 30th<\/p>\n<p>Ausstellungsdaten und -zeiten:<br \/>\n<b>Wednesday, October 25 &#8211; Opening Reception &#8211; 6:00 pm<br \/>\n<\/b>Saturday, October 28 &#8211; 10:00 am \u2013 1:00 pm<br \/>\nSunday, October 29 \u2013 11:30 am \u2013 2:30 pm<br \/>\nMonday, October 30 &#8211; 11:00 am &#8211; 2:00 pm<br \/>\nTuesday, October 31 &#8211; 11:00 am &#8211; 2:00 pm<br \/>\nWednesday, November 8 &#8211; 11:00 am &#8211; 2:00 pm<br \/>\nMonday, November 13 &#8211; 11:00 am &#8211; 2:00 pm<br \/>\nTuesday, November 14 \u2013 11:00 am \u2013 2:00 pm<br \/>\n<strong>Saturday, November 18 &#8211; Artist Talk &#8211; 10:30 &#8211; 12:00 pm<\/strong><br \/>\nSunday, November 19 &#8211; 1:00 pm \u2013 4 :00 pm (reception in Hall for Dick Sisto concert in Chapel)<br \/>\nMonday, November 20 &#8211; 11:00 am &#8211; 2:00 pm<br \/>\nTuesday, November 21 &#8211; 11:00 am &#8211; 2:00 pm<br \/>\nWednesday, November 29 &#8211; 11:00 am &#8211; 2:00 pm<br \/>\nThursday, November 30 \u2013 11:00 am \u2013 2:00 pm<\/p>\n<p>Ort: St. Anthony Hall<br \/>\nMount Saint Francis Zentrum f\u00fcr Spiritualit\u00e4t<br \/>\n101 St. Anthony Dr.<br \/>\nMount Saint Francis, IN 47146<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_medium\"><\/div><div class=\"g-cols wpb_row via_flex valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><h4>Treffen Sie den K\u00fcnstler<\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_medium\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_col-sm-4 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"w-person layout_circle\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Person\"><div class=\"w-person-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.franciscansusa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IMG_3351.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" itemprop=\"image\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.franciscansusa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IMG_3351.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.franciscansusa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IMG_3351-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.franciscansusa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IMG_3351-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.franciscansusa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IMG_3351-12x12.jpg 12w, https:\/\/www.franciscansusa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IMG_3351-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.franciscansusa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IMG_3351-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.franciscansusa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IMG_3351-25x25.jpg 25w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/div><div class=\"w-person-content\"><h4 itemprop=\"name\" class=\"w-person-name\"><span>Penny Sisto<\/span><\/h4><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_col-sm-8 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><p>Penny Sisto ist eine international anerkannte K\u00fcnstlerin, die in den USA und im Ausland ausgestellt hat. Zu ihren internationalen Pr\u00e4sentationen geh\u00f6ren die Ausstellung einer Sammlung von Holocaust-Quilts im Torhaus von Auschwitz und eine Auswahl ihrer Sklaverei-Quilts, die 2008 im Royal Armories Museum in Leeds, England, ausgestellt wurden. Sie hat f\u00fcr ihre Kunstwerke zahlreiche Preise und Auszeichnungen erhalten und war Gegenstand zweier \u00f6ffentlich-rechtlicher Fernsehsendungen. Als Verfechterin sozialer Gerechtigkeit und des Friedens ist sie bekannt f\u00fcr die schwierigen Themen wie AIDS, Armut und Rassismus, die sie in ihren Werken thematisiert.<\/p>\n<p>Sisto wurde auf den Orkneyinseln vor der Nordspitze Schottlands geboren und lernte im Alter von drei Jahren das N\u00e4hen. Als Erwachsene arbeitete sie f\u00fcr das britische Entwicklungsministerium und nutzte ihre F\u00e4higkeiten als Hebamme, um in Gesundheitskliniken f\u00fcr die Massai, LuBukusu und Kikuyu in Ostafrika zu helfen. Ihre Zeit in Afrika inspirierte sie dazu, die Quilt-, Stick- und Applikationstechniken, die sie von ihrer Gro\u00dfmutter gelernt hatte, mit den Perlen- und Collagetechniken ihrer afrikanischen Freunde zu kombinieren. Dies f\u00fchrte zu dem unverwechselbaren Stil, der in ihren Arbeiten bis heute sichtbar ist.<\/p>\n<p>Penny Sisto erhielt zahlreiche Auftr\u00e4ge f\u00fcr Quilts, darunter vier Arbeiten f\u00fcr die Abtei Gethsemane, wo jedes Jahr zu Ostern und bei Trauerfeiern ein 28\u00d79 Fu\u00df gro\u00dfer Quilt mit dem Titel \u201eAuferstandener Christus\u201c h\u00e4ngt. Weitere Sammlungen mit Werken von Sisto sind: Sisters of Charity, Sisters of Loretto, Thomas Merton International Studies Center, Spalding University, Kennedy Family und das Peabody Essex Museum in Massachusetts. Zu den Stipendien, die Penny Sisto erhielt, geh\u00f6ren: Kentucky Foundation for Women, Indiana Arts Commission, Master Fellowship und New Directions and Southern Arts. 1993 wurde sie f\u00fcr ihre Arbeit zur F\u00f6rderung von Frieden und Gerechtigkeit mit dem Baha&#039;i Peace Award for Arts Promoting World Peace ausgezeichnet.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_col-sm-4 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><p><strong>Er\u00f6ffnungsempfang<br \/>\nWednesday, October 25th, 6pm<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.franciscansusa.org\/de\/ereignis\/vision-quest-opening-reception\/\">Mehr Infos<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>K\u00fcnstlergespr\u00e4ch<br \/>\nWednesday, November 29th, 11:00am-12:30 pm<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.franciscansusa.org\/de\/ereignis\/vision-quest-artist-talk\/\">Mehr Infos<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Ausstellungsdaten und -zeiten:<br \/>\n<\/strong>Exhibit Runs: October 25th &#8211; November 30th<b><\/b><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.franciscansusa.org\/de\/ereignis\/vision-quest\/\">Mehr Infos<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_small\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>","protected":false},"featured_media":16200,"menu_order":0,"template":"","event_category":[101],"class_list":["post-16153","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","event_category-past-events"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-09-05 10:12:44","action":"category","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"event_category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.franciscansusa.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event\/16153","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.franciscansusa.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.franciscansusa.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/event"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.franciscansusa.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16200"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.franciscansusa.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16153"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"event_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.franciscansusa.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event_category?post=16153"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
