Columbia Center for the Arts and The Dalles Art Center are showcasing prints created by more than two dozen Native American artists during residencies at the Crow’s Shadow Institute of the Arts, an arts center and printmaking studio located on the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation in Pendleton. Crow’s Shadow invites a select number of visual artists and sculptors each year to participate in a two-week residency to produce limited edition prints of their own design. Lillian Pitt, a Native artist from the Wasco, Yakama and Warm Springs Tribes, and Natalie Ball, an Afro-Indigenous artist from the Klamath, Modoc and Tahlequah Tribes, join us to talk about their art and their experiences at Crow’s Shadow. They are also featured in the “Contemporary Native Voices: Prints from the Crow’s Shadow Institute of the Arts” exhibit at Columbia Center for the Arts in Hood River, which along with The Dalles Art Center exhibit of prints from Crow’s Shadow, is free to the public and lasts until March 26.
