Origin Stories

Origin Stories

“Origin Stories” was my first solo exhibition which debuted at KALICO Art Center in Kalispell, Montana.

In this exhibition my goal was to tell histories connecting Indigenous people, specifically Native American women, with place in Western Montana and bring those histories to light through painting.

I have included links to various media from Origin Stories as well as select images from the show.
