Artist Talk & Studio Tour: Carly Feddersen

Carley Feddersen: School for Advanced Research’s Resident Native Artist (Eric and Barbara Dobkin Fellow)

Carly Feddersen, an enrolled member of the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation, is an early-career artist with a concentration in jewelry and traditional Plateau twined basketry. A trained metalsmith, Carly received her bachelor of fine arts degree from the Institute of American Indian Arts (IAIA) in 2016. Her work can be found in museum collections including the Heard Museum, the Museum of Contemporary Native Arts (MoCNA), Eiteljorg Museum, Portland Art Museum, and others.

The Indian Arts Research Center (IARC) offers three artist-in-residence fellowships annually to advance the work of established and emerging Native American artists. These fellowships provide artists time and space to explore new avenues of creativity, grapple with new ideas to further advance their work, and strengthen their existing talents. At the end of each fellowship, the artists give a presentation about their work and host an open studio at SAR.

This event will be held in person at SAR and livestreamed on SAR’s YouTube channel.
