Judy Tuwaletstiwa: Once Upon a Dream

Santa Fe’s beloved artist Judy Tuwaletstiwa returns to Pie Projects for a solo exhibition. She sees her art as an act of reparation. This show will feature new works, including exquisite kiln-fired glass on canvas and mixed media creations inspired by her forthcoming children’s book Frog Dreaming.

“First, we know sound, the rhythmic beating of our mother’s heart. Second, we know touch, the texture of our mother’s skin. Then we know light.

During the day, we go about with eyes open. During the night, we go about with eyes closed. We travel long distances on our Night Journeys.” – Judy Tuwaletstiwa

A celebrated artist with a long career of residencies, exhibitions, and collections to her name, Judy Tuwaletstiwa received her BA in English Literature from UC, Berkeley in 1962, and her MAT in English Literature from Harvard University in 1963. Her art lives in private, public, and museum collections. Special editions of her three books, including her 2016 book, Glass, published with Radius Books, reside in libraries such as the Corning Museum of Glass’ Rakow Library and Yale’s Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library.

The Opening Reception will be on July 8, from 4-6 pm, and the Exhibition will be on view from July 8-29.
