Tracking Time is a two-person exhibition featuring newly commissioned work by painter Noelle Phares and multi-disciplinary artist Chelsea Kaiah. The work on view situates two different interpretations of our evolving relationship to the natural world through the lenses of environmental studies and Native American cosmology, respectively. Anchored by seven personally relevant sites along the Colorado River, Phares translates the human impact on land and water in her signature painting style. Kaiah employs recurring materials associated with her indigenous hunting practice, including animal hides and blue plastic tarps, to reinvent traditional Ute and Apache symbolism. Each body of work serves as a map to help navigate the current conversation around our ecological crisis and as a reflection of our interrelated past, present, and future.
