Artist Lecture at Trinidad State Boyd TCRM building (and virtual!)

5/1/25 5:30-6:30pm

Autumn Hunnicutt was born and raised in the high deserts of northern New Mexico. Her oil paintings explore ideas of cycles, memory, the natural world, and life experiences, often inspired by her southwestern roots and surrounding environments. Her work highlights the beauty of the natural world, giving a sense of holiness to the flora and fauna that inhabit the familiar land. Hunnicutt’s time living away from home in various states and backpacking across the Californian desert has deepened her respect for new encounters and familiarity. The human figure, landscape, plants, birds, and color are used to create stories of existence and experience. The use of color and symbolism in Hunnicutt’s paintings can be seen as a reflection of the southwest and a simultaneous longing for new experiences.
