About this event
Marty Two Bulls Jr., Oglala Sioux Tribe Lakota Artist Laureate and educator, will share his unique perspective from his time as the 2024 Artist-In-Residence at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) in Lead. Two Bulls will talk about his experience 4,850 feet underground and the artwork he created for his recent exhibition Inyan Wakan (“holy rock” in Lakota), which explores the parallels at SURF: miners extracting minerals in the past to scientists extracting knowledge today. He will discuss the connections between art, science, and history as well as their importance in our society.
