San Francisco, CA: Catharine Clark Gallery opens its Winter 2022 program with Companion Species (Calling Back, Calling Forward), the gallery’s debut solo exhibition with acclaimed artist Marie Watt. A member of the Seneca Nation of Indians with German Scots ancestry, Watt’s interdisciplinary work draws from history, biography, Iroquois proto-feminism, and Indigenous teachings; in it, she explores the intersection of history, community, and storytelling. Through collaborative actions, she instigates multigenerational and cross-disciplinary conversations that create a lens and conversation for understanding connectedness to place and one another.
