Heap-O-Livin’

by Lora Webb Nichols

Heap-O-Livin’ features a selection of images by Wyoming photographer and diarist Lora Webb Nichols (1883-1962). Nichols created and collected approximately 24,000 negatives and 65 years of diaries throughout her lifetime in the town of Encampment. Despite the inherent isolation created by geography, the long brutal winters, and the patriarchal ideology that undervalued the role of women in Encampment in the late 19th and early 20th century, a robust female-led community emerged that provided a network of spiritual and emotional support. This was cultivated through the habitual visitations of immediate and extended family and friends into each other’s homes during their transition from children to wives and mothers. In Nichols’ sphere, these visitations often involved the act of picture-making. Lora photographed their duties as mothers and homemakers but also made photographs that reveal the pleasure they experienced in simply being in each other’s company.

This month, member's also recieve a collectable curators notecard.
