701CCA Presents: Flavia Lovatelli Granby Mills Guard House Installation Unveiling

Thursday, October 10 from 7 to 8 p.m.
398 Heyward Street, Columbia, SC 29201
We’re excited to announce the unveiling of a new installation by Flavia Lovatelli at one of the historic Guard Houses in front of Granby Mill. Selected as 701 CCA Artist in Residence for March 2024, Lovatelli developed a powerful, site-specific work that pays tribute to the mill workers and the rich history of the mill village.
Lovatelli’s artistic practice focuses on recycling materials, primarily paper, to create intricate, labor-intensive sculptures and vessels. For this Guard House installation, she incorporated textile industry pattern paper, recycled paper, papier-mâché, and doll parts to craft evocative figurative pieces.
