The Denver Art Museum needs your help!
Danielle SeeWalker is Hunkpapa Lakota from the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North Dakota, where she was born and raised. She is an artist, writer, activist, and “boymom” of two, based in Denver, Colorado. She likes to experiment and use mixed media within her artwork while incorporating traditional Native American materials, scenes, and messaging. Her artwork pays homage to her identity as a Native woman and to her passion to redirect the narrative to an accurate and insightful representation of contemporary Native America while not losing sight of the history of her ancestors.
At the Denver Art Museum, our local creative community includes some of our most inspirational collaborators. From Untitled: Creative Fusions, to our Creative-in-Residence program, to weekend demonstrations in the Studio, local artists are integral to DAM programs.
For many of our staff members, music can often be the key ingredient in getting the creative juices flowing. But we were curious: is the same true for artists?
We turned to one of our local favorites, Suzy Savoy, for answers and asked her what music has helped her to get into the creative mindset during quarantine. Suzy—a Denver-based painter who specializes in a technique involving glass and acrylic enamel (check out this quick but fascinating video about her process)—created an entire playlist for us in response.
Our Denver creative community is a vibrant source of inspiration and creativity—especially now. This week, we asked local artist Romelle to share what is keeping her inspired and sparking her creativity during this time. She says:
Día del Niño (Children’s Day) celebrates the important role of children in society. The United Nations recognizes the importance of creating awareness for the protection of children’s rights and, to that end, holds a day for adults to recognize their role in the protection of this right of children to enjoy a healthy and peaceful life. Most countries around the world have a day in which adults show their love, appreciation, and recognition of children in a national celebration that takes place in homes and schools, but also at community gatherings.
Join us on Facebook and YouTube on May 15, 16, and 17 at 7 pm MST for the Denver Art Museum’s first Untitled: Creative Fusions at Home! This is the online version of the Untitled: Creative Fusions event that happens quarterly at the museum. The online version, like the onsite version, is curated by local creatives and inspired by artwork at the museum.
For this event, Becky Wareing Steele and Libby Barbee are our two featured artists who collaborated with us and other local creatives to develop a three-episode online variety show full of fun and unexpected experiences.
