Description
There was a woman who put a sign in the yard in front of her Edgehill home simply stating that “This house is not for sale”. This was around 2018 when homes in Nashville were being bought aggressively and neighborhoods were experiencing rapid gentrification. Rather than keep turning down offers an Edgehill woman put up a sign. “Not For Sale” speaks to a time in Edgehill, but also a time in Nashville where the growth of the city led to the displacement of many locals. The burglar bars in the painting are from a Nashville home that was demolished to make space for a new development.
