Summer Winter : Margaret Roach Wheeler

Summer Winter : Margaret Roach Wheeler

Summer Winter is an exhibition of handwoven garments by Margaret Roach Wheeler and fiber artworks by Mahota Textiles, the first tribally owned textile company in the U.S. The exhibition presents sixteen garments inspired by Indigenous symbology and textile traditions from the southwest to the northeast alongside functional textiles that honor history's unnamed weavers and fiber artists. Included in this exhibition are artist collaborations with Marwin Begay (Navajo/Diné) and Alice McKee and Maria Mayo. Summer Winter highlights Wheeler’s contributions to contemporary Indigenous fashion design, while bringing attention to the broader network of Indigenous craft traditions in the U.S.

This exhibition's opening reception coincides with the opening of the inaugural Native Fashion Week Santa Fe. Headed by Indigenous fashion expert Amber-Dawn Bear Robe, Native Fashion Week Santa Fe celebrates Indigenous designers, showcasing their innovations to entertain, educate, and evolve the fashion landscape. In collaboration with Native Fashion Week Santa Fe, our sister gallery, form & concept, is hosting a trunk show by award winning jeweler Neeko Garcia (Diné (Navajo)/Hispanic) in the gallery shop.
