Lupine Hammack: Toy Trucks
Growing up the son of back-to-the-land hippies living in the Sierra Nevada foothills, these wooded escapes became Lupine’s way to step back from the communal, to slow it down, to dream, and to create.Inspired as a seven-year-old, Lupine took to the woods with his mother’s camera in tow. Because he knew the film was expensive, he began his photography career by taking one picture a week, each time carefully considering my story, how he would craft each scene, incorporate his toys, his props. Now, as a professional, Lupine incorporates his classic childhood toys into his series, Toy Trucks.
First Exposures
We are living in a time in which solidarity can no longer be a noun, living only in our words and on our social media, but it must be a verb of action, protest, and unlearning. Anti-Blackness and systemic racism are at the core of our nation’s history, impacting every facet of our lives. We are seeing now more than ever, young people are shouldering the weight of our history and being the catalysts of change with BIPOC youth leading the way. We must, as the First Exposures’ staff and board, support these efforts. As a youth-based arts organization working primarily with communities of color and other underserved communities, we are actively committed to dismantling systemic inequality in our society and within our own organization.
