Welcome to "Layers of Heritage"
Layers of Heritage is a captivating series of photomontages that celebrates the enduring vibrancy of Native culture, weaving together elements of tradition, nature, and artistic vision. Each piece in this limited-edition collection is a visual narrative, blending the intricate beauty of regalia with the dynamic essence of landscapes and natural elements.
At the heart of Layers of Heritage lies the process of photomontage, where individual photographs are layered and blended to create a single cohesive and evocative image. This technique allows me to merge traditional and contemporary aesthetics, capturing not just a moment in time but the spirit and story behind it.
Each photomontage begins with photographs I capture—often focusing on the rich details of regalia, the beauty of movement in dance, and the serene interplay of light and nature. I then use digital techniques to layer these elements together, adjusting textures, colors, and contrasts to create a painterly effect. The final result is a work of art that is both vibrant and timeless, honoring the past while celebrating its place in the present.
This series is available in a limited edition of 10 prints per size and medium. Every print is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity, ensuring its uniqueness and value as a collector’s piece.
