Live Artist Demo: Blackfeet Artist Terran Last Gun: Pikani Visual Sovereignty

Presented in part by a grant from Humanities Montana, as part of the exhibition, the artist will be creating an all-new work for both the public and the exhibition. The public is invited to observe Last Gun creating new work in the galleries, and to ask questions about his materials and process as he paints.
Terran Last Gun: Piikani Visual Sovereignty features over 25 serigraphs and ledger art from Blackfeet/Piikani artist Terran Last Gun, Sah’kwiinaamah’kaa. His work centers on the process of color exploration and visual documentation of nature, cosmos, cultural narratives, and recollections of home. Employing contemporary geometric shapes from traditional Blackfeet lodges and visual iconography, Last Gun sees his work and artistic processes as a contribution to an ancient Indigenous North American narrative through various media including print making, ledger drawing, painting, and photography.
