Story (500 Words Max)
Sing Our Rivers Red. Goudi'ni Native American Art Gallery. Sept 6th - Oct. 19th
An exhibition of earrings aimed at bringing awareness to the epidemic of missing and murdered indigenous women and colonial gender-based violence. A long cloth hanging, covered with hundreds of earrings, will occupy the Goudi'ni Gallery. Displayed alongside will be supplementary material, such as letters to missing women from their loved ones. The remainder of the space will be left unoccupied, leaving conceptual space for the missing and murdered. As part of this exhibition, we will host a sewing circle, where people will have the opportunity to sew earrings onto Pendleton blankets for an upcoming traveling exhibition.
