About

Jessica Silverman presents Rose B. Simpson’s “Skeena,” a solo show of new sculptures, which demonstrate the artist’s uncanny ability to animate the inanimate. Simpson grew up in Santa Clara Pueblo, a Tewa tribal community next to the Latinx town of Española, New Mexico. “Skeena” is Latino slang for the people in my corner or those who’ve got my back. Simpson’s “Skeena” is a down-to-earth and otherworldly exploration of community, which ultimately asks us to imagine how we all could be better ancestors. The exhibition opens November 9 and is on view through December 23, 2023.
