More pasta art from Vernon Spicer!This depiction of the Edmund Pettus Bridge was on display last weekend at the Children's Rehabilitation Center art fair. It looks like a painting, but it is made entirely of painted pasta.The bright spots near the top are just a reflection of the ceiling lights.
Here's historic Brown Chapel AME Church "in pasta." The art is another masterpiece of Selma's Vernon Spicer, who also produced the Edmund Pettus Bridge.
This weekend is the 15th annual Bridge Crossing Jubilee, and Brown Chapel, a 1908 Romanesque structure with twin towers, played a big part in the Voting Rights Movement of the 1960s.
Artist Vernon Spicer built the Pettus Bridge with pasta! This pasta portrait is currently on display at the Selma-Dallas County Public Library along with others: The Old Depot Museum, Holley Farm and Garden Center and Brown Chapel AME Church. What kinds of pasta can you detect?
