Deer hide, conductive thread, glass beads, dreams
132 x 66 cm

“In a series of leather wall hangings, Kite translates fragments of her dreams into Lakȟóta geometries that she embroiders onto deer hides sourced from the Laurentian mountains. Rendered in sparkling beadwork and non-electrified conductive thread, the compositions contribute to a Lakȟóta visual language that allows multiple meanings to orbit around core semiotic associations. The hides also function as “tactile music scores” in dialog with a sound piece that corresponds with each dream segment.” – Sophie Landres
