In 2024, Tippet Rise Art Center in Montana permanently installed a glass and granite sculpture called “The Soil You See…” by the artist Wendy Red Star, who grew up on the nearby Apsáalooke (Crow) reservation. The sculpture, which resembles a giant blood-red fingerprint, is inscribed with the names of 50 Apsáalooke chiefs who were coerced by the U.S. government into using their thumbprints to cede their tribal lands. Today, the center’s guided tours incorporate information on the Apsáalooke people.

Suchitra Mattai: she walked in reverse and found their songs
Seattle Asian Art Museum, Seattle, WA
April 9 – July 20, 2025
Indo-Caribbean artist Suchitra Mattai unravels stories of the past to imagine new futures. In her work, she is deeply influenced by the history of her ancestors, who were brought from India to work as indentured laborers in Guyana. She works with materials that honor the labor of women—including vintage saris, beads, and embroidery—and uses techniques passed down through generations. At the center of the exhibition, Mattai reimagines her grandparents’ home in Guyana, the core of her migration story. From there, a memory journey told through textiles and sculptures spills out into the rest of the gallery.

The Corridor Foundation is pleased to announce the launch of its spring exhibition, Mystical Me, on March 29, 2025.
