Join us with Santa Fe Art Institute’s Story Maps Fellowship alumni, Heidi K. Brandow as she presents her work, “The Memory Project”

“The Memory Project” utilized demographic data as a means to critically analyze public art and memorials throughout Santa Fe, New Mexico. Data collected highlighted the disproportionately high colonial influence represented in public memorials which significantly diminished the history and people of regionally specific Indigenous cultures.

Heidi K. Brandow is a multi-disciplinary artist whose work is commonly filled with whimsical characters and monsters that are often combined with words of poetry, stories, and personal reflections. Hailing from a long line of Native Hawaiian singers, musicians, and performers on her mother’s side and Diné storytellers and medicine people on her father’s side, she has found that her pursuit of a career in the arts was a natural progression.

Primarily working in painting, printmaking, and social-engagement mediums, Brandow’s work is centered on the inclusion of Indigenous people and perspectives, in the development of ethical and sustainable methods of creative engagement.
