"As an Indigenous Oglála Lak?óta Artist, My interdisciplinary approach to printmaking and sculpture evokes an ancestral remembrance through the careful consideration of my sacred homelands in the Mak?óši?a (Badlands) and the ?e Sápa (Black Hills). My Monotypes feature graphic black and white strokes that linger between representation and abstraction, absence and presence, and the tangible and intangible. This in-between space that my work exists in, is a reclamation of Indigenous worldview, landscape, and history. I look to explore physicality and spirituality by merging the site-specific processes of sculpture and printmaking and examining the Lak?óta relationship between the human and non-human world. I look to bridge the spiritual and physical world together into an enticing embodiment of ceremony through a Lak?óta perspective, Mitákuye Oyás’i? (“All My Relations”). These acknowledgments of Lakota kinship while respecting and evoking protection of our sacred is at the heart of my work and is a powerful container to hold these traditional Lakota positions around shape, color and sacred numerical theologies" - Angelica Trimble-Yanu
