CLEARLY INDIGENOUS Conversations on Glass Art
Designing Clearly Indigenous
August 4, 2021
10:00 am through 11:00 am
Breaking the boundaries of what is deemed traditional Indigenous art, Museum of Indian Arts & Culture’s new exhibition, Clearly Indigenous, examines how Native artists reinterpret cultural narratives and designs in new mediums. The two-pronged exhibition focuses on how Native artists have melded ancestral ways with new methods and materials in glass, while concurrently examining the historical narrative of how glass art came to Indian Country. In this month’s program, exhibition designer Caroline Lajoie will discuss the exhibition’s design, walking attendees through her inspiration and process. The presentation will be followed by a Q&A session moderated by Lillia McEnaney.
