Shinnecock Speaks presented contemporary Shinnecock artists at Ma’s House & BIPOC Art Studio, Inc., centering cultural inheritance, contemporary expression, and the living presence of the Shinnecock Indian Nation. The exhibition brought together intergenerational artists working across photography, painting, sculpture, beadwork, pottery, woodwork, and other forms.
As a curatorial project, the exhibition created space for Shinnecock artists and elders to speak through their own work, histories, and material practices. The accompanying catalog, edited by Jeremy Dennis, documents the exhibition and the artists included in the project.
