A site-specific mosaic of thousands of handmade ceramic tiles in the museum’s Studio Bar, drawing on Lakota abstraction.
White Hawk built this installation from thousands of handmade ceramic tiles, using colors rooted in Lakota beadwork and quillwork traditions. Subtle shifts in hue echo gradients found in nature and set an emotional tone for a space of rest and reflection.
The work draws on Lakota abstraction while placing Native art in dialogue with American Modernists such as Marsden Hartley and Jackson Pollock, who cited Native art as an influence.
