Bullseye Studio

The team at Bullseye Studio was honored to work with Wendy Red Star to make this monumental work of glass. "The Soil You See..." acknowledges the names of 50 Apsáalooke chiefs and tribal representatives who brokered treaties with the US government in the 19th century.

// - This juicy piece of eye candy is a full-scale sample fabricated by for a new permanent kiln-formed glass installation at SEA- Seattle-Tacoma Intl Airport. My largest project to date, I have had my head down in the studio for the last year and a half working on the details

Many hats have been worn, and I have learned a lot on the fly. Now that fabrication is underway, I can catch my breath a little while the uber talented folks at Bullseye Studio bring this work to life, thanks y’all!

Thanks also to .g.human and and the team at the Port of Seattle for all the support getting to this point

More glimpses behind the scenes coming soon...

Reposting. from Morgan Madison. Continuing explorations of and in layers of transparent sheet glass. Preparatory work for a new kiln formed glass installation coming soon… Stoked to get to work with on this 💪😃

How Portland artist and ‘genius grant’ winner Wendy Red Star connects identity to her work Wendy Red Star draws from her Apsáalooke/Crow heritage to create visual art that bridges Indigenous perspectives with contemporary art.
