Cynthia K. Homire Collection
Cynthia Homire attended Black Mountain College from 1950 to 1953, where she formed connections with Charles Olson, Robert Creeley, and especially M.C. Richards. During her time there, she honed her writing, poetry, and drawing skills and discovered a passion for pottery, studying under Black Mountain potters David Weinrib and Karen Karnes. After leaving BMC, she married fellow student Jorge Fick in 1964. The couple moved to Santa Fe, where they established The Fickery, a pottery studio that operated for 11 years.
This collection features artworks and archives from Homire's time at BMC and The Fickery. As she was a multimedia artist, this collection of her work includes ceramics, figure drawings, sketchbooks, paintings, as well as photographs and ephemera related to The Fickery.
