Author: Watt, Marie
The interdisciplinary oeuvre of Seneca Nation member Marie Watt draws from history, biography, Iroquois proto-feminism and Indigenous teachings. Her work underscores the sacred role of storytelling throughout history and across culture, delving into elemental themes such as dreams, myths, memories, earth and the cosmos. Scholarly essays by curator John Murphy and art historian Jolene Rickard reflect upon Watt’s contributions to the discipline.This catalogue, published on the occasion of Watt’s retrospective travelling exhibition, is the first-ever inquiry into the artist’s printmaking processes and techniques. Spanning from 1996 to the present, the book compiles a considerable breadth of prints: from her early print works at her alma mater Yale to her collaborations with masters of the trade at Crows Shadow Institute, Sitka Center for Art and Ecology, Tamarind Institute and, most recently, Mullowney Printing Company.
ISBN 9798988685715. Jordan Schnitzer Family Foundation. hb. 192 pages. 331 colour, 3 b/w ills. 27.9 x 24.1 cm.
