In a land far away, in a time long ago, Vietnam was deluged by rain that just wouldn’t stop. Lands and homes were flooded until a graceful goddess descended from the sky. Upon her head was an enormous hat made of large leaves stitched together by bamboo sticks. This large hat was able to guard the people against the rain; the goddess dispelled the clouds and rain, allowing the people to return back to a normal life. The conical hat or Non La has evolved over the years, and has identified and protected generations of Vietnamese. Unfortunately, it did not protect against invaders.

Scottie Kersta-Wilson is a Chicago-based artist, writer, and textile designer. Having travelled as an Army Brat for much of her childhood, she settled in Houston TX after the death of her father in Vietnam. Photography led her to Chicago to pursue an MFA. Here her work took on the shapes and subjects that continue to this day. Her images and collages include her own photography and photomontage from Southeast Asia and other areas of war. They are manipulated or collaged to share the presence of human hope and the persistent beauty of nature in the midst (or aftermath) of war. Her art examines the perceptions, mental images, and physical reality of the unintended consequences of war. Her images are typically printed on Somerset Velvet Giclee or silk. The surface of the printed matter is reminiscent of Asia, the place where she last knew her father and military history. She has received several residencies from Ragdale Foundation; and several grants from The American Descendants of Bataan & Corregidor.
