Wearing a vintage rickrack dress with dystopian augmentations, artist Klaire Lockheart slides a ZZ Top album from a record sleeve.

While balancing an impressive amount of hair atop her head, an artist snaps a bad selfie to document her suave photographer husband underneath the Springboard for the Arts exterior sign.

Allow these photos to serve as a “record” of my artist residency hosted by Springboard for the Arts! Terrible puns aside, I am incredibly grateful for this opportunity, and I can’t wait to share the artwork I made while I was in MN!

Klaire Lockheart, dressed as a dystopian Lucille Ballard in a white on red polkadot dress, laughs into a green rotary phone whilst feigning to read How to Beautify Your Home, published in 1930.

A mediocre selfie includes half of the face of a shiny and chrome artist on the left edge of the picture plane along with an exhausted photographer sitting upon a black case, who is underneath the Springboard for the Arts sign in downtown Fergus Falls.

I had a great time during my Rural Regenerator Fellow Residency hosted by Springboard for the Arts, and I can’t wait to tell you about it!

All artists from the United States, regardless of gender, are invited to submit one or two high quality photographs of their art before the deadline of April 4, 2025. Witness Me is the 4th annual Thunderdomesticity exhibition, and it will feature artwork that is post-apocalyptic, feminist, and everything in between.

The juror of this exhibition is Klaire Lockheart, host of the Femininity in the Post-Apocalypse podcast. Accepted artwork will be professionally printed, with the longest dimension at 8”. The prints will be wheat-pasted to the exterior of No. 7 Center Gallery in Vermillion, SD. The selected images will also be included in an online exhibition hosted by the Packard Group at packardgroupllc.com.

Artwork does not need to be figurative nor narrative to be considered, but self-portraits are encouraged. The opening reception will occur on Final Friday, May 30, 2025. The outdoor exhibition of prints will be on display from May 30 through July 25, 2025. There is no entry fee to submit artwork, but artists will pay a $30 printing fee for each accepted image.
