Recently Dignity Justified visited the Southeastern Contemporary Arts museum in Winston-Salem NC to experience the Freeman Vines Hanging Tree Guitars exhibition organized by the Music Maker Relief Foundation. Thanks to Wendy at SECCA, photographer Tim Duffy, and Nick Loss-Eaton Dignity Justified was able to connect with Mr. Vines, a guitar maker and former blues singer, who hails from eastern North Carolina. Mr. Freeman, who loves the character of wood, has said, “messing with wood is like messing with old cars. He has artistically created hand carved guitars from all types of wood and found objects for over 50 years. We invite you to the wisdom of Mr. Vines as he shares about famous blues artists, his gospel singing sisters, the Glorifying Vine Sisters, and the horrific silenced story of a lynching.
