International Thematic Residency on Sovereignity, Santa Fe Art Institute, New Mexico

The landscape is amazing, the downtown a beauty, and the Southwestern lifestyle attractive. It feels as if the Indigenous culture is imbued in the richness of local life - as is the light (and the strong shadows), the crystal air, and the architecture.

The Santa Fe Art Institute is housed in an amazing building, located a 15-minute drive from downtown on a mostly abandoned ex-university campus.
