Wednesday is the last day to see Inyan Wakan—an art exhibit at the Ruddell Gallery at Black Hills State University.
The show, which translates to 'Holy Rock,' is by Marty Two Bulls Jr., a Lakota artist who was an Artist in Residence at the Sanford Underground Research Facility this year.
It features a series of portraits and collages that tell a story about the Black Hills, the Homestake mine, and the site’s future as a world class particle physics laboratory.
SDPB’s Lee Strubinger ran into Two Bulls Jr. at the exhibit on Monday afternoon. Two Bulls Jr. says the monochromatic color of the work matches the interior of the underground lab.
Two Bulls Jr. says he’s looking to travel the show in 2025.
