Hey, you made it!
Hey, thanks for scanning the QR Code! I wanted to give a little extra color and background behind my works any time they are installed somewhere.
Conscience Point
Back in 2021 I was one of many Indigenous artists featured in “Outcropping”, a show curated by Jeremy Dennis.
This installation, located at Conscience Point in what is now Southampton, is a collaboration between Southampton Historical Museum, the Shinnecock Nation Cultural Center and Museum. Work I created while an intern and artisan at the SNCCM are featured among others helping to explain this historic site to visitors.
This 2023 installation at Ma’s House is “Shinnecock Portraits”, a show curated by Jeremy Dennis with a rather self-explanatory name.
