"Resilient Matriarch: Indigenous Women's Art in Community" Virtual Exhibition 2021

 



Today is a good day.  It's a good day to absorb some 'beauty' art from some beautyful Indigenous women artists.

I am glad to announce a virtual group art exhibition that opens today!
The show is titled, Resilient Matriarch: Indigenous Women's Art in Community and features the following women artists:

Tacey Atsitty, Avis Charley, Lynnette Haozous, Monica Wapaha, Venaya Yazzie.

My contribution to this exhibition is an homage to my late maternal grandmother, Jane Werito Yazzie, as she was the inspiration for this current work I submitted. Both the photographs and the prose writing are based on my experience with grief, loss of a matriarch,
and the conscious healing process.



The spirit of 'healing' and continue resilience is the root of this art exhibition. We offer this art as a means of the spirit of 'still here.'

May you find that goodness and shine as you view the virtual exhibition.



Blessings,
VJ
