Samantha Joy Groff, who goes by the moniker “redneckhotwife”, is a former Mennonite, who left the fold to pursue a more fulfilling life as an artist. Her paintings and sculptures depict the boring, lonely existence of her former rural life, waiting for something better and constantly longing for a way out. She incorporates into her work imagery as well as actual textiles and other materials from the Mennonite community in Pennsylvania, ironically, in part to preserve the dying cultural traditions she left behind.
