Roots We Water

We are honored to invite you and the communities you serve to witness something that has been a long time in the making. Cahokia PHX — Indigenous Creative Placekeeping Platform presents:

An immersive traveling art installation that brings land, water, and Indigenous rights to life through storytelling, art, and ceremony. Created by five multidisciplinary artists, united by a common declaration: We are still here.

Created through think tanks, collaboration, workshops, lived stories, canvas, projection, photography, natural elements, and elders' knowledge — this installation encourages you not only to look but also to feel, remember, and witness.

Featuring artists and panelists:

• Carrie “Cc” Curley, San Carlos Nnee (Apache), Painter, Muralist, Photographer
• Alicia Velasquez, Apache/Chicana, Jeweler, Fashion Designer, Organizer, Entrepreneur
• Eunique Yazzie, Navajo/Diné, Designer, Multimedia Artist, Organizer, Entrepreneur
• Diane Ovalle, Mexica/Yoeme, Photographer, Dancer, Creative Activist
• Ernesto Burbank, Navajo/Diné, Painter, Tattoo Artist, Entrepreneur

This is for our communities. For the water under threat. For the land that holds our memory. For the generations we’re creating right now.
