Acid Plant
The acid plant sat close to the road and railroad crossing. It never caught my attention until they began its demolition. A place where the steel stripping and tempering acid was made and tested, one of the places in the mill where my father-in-law worked. Another structure of mystery to the outside public, its secrets were revealed when the corrugated steel walls were peeled away. In this piece it sits waiting, through a weekend break, with its interior pipes, wires, tiles and lights in full view, for the first time, by outsiders.

Jaclyn Rice
Born and raised in the gently rolling hills and farmlands of Lancaster County, PA, Jaci earned a BFA in Painting/Drawing at Tyler School of Art (of Temple University) in Philadelphia, PA. After moving to Pittsburgh, PA, she participated in her first residency program, The Distillery, through The Brewhouse, a gallery/work/live space located on the South Side of the city. A 2020 recipient of the Tamarack Foundation for the Arts Emerging Artist Fellowship, and mother to three, Jaci spends most of her time caring for her family while carving out time to work in her home studio. She continues her industrial landscape work based on observations of her current hometown of Weirton, West Virginia, once a monolith of the steel industry, now a Rust Belt beacon in the process of revitalization. She regularly shows her work though juried exhibitions, in collector’s homes throughout the country and completes commissioned work when able.
