Dripping Earth: Cannupa Hanska Luger

The Joslyn
Omaha, Nebraska
November 15, 2025–March 8, 2026

These clay forms—augmented with willow branches, blankets, felt, used sports equipment, and other traditional and untraditional materials—reach backward to the earth-molding, lodge-building traditions of the artist’s Mandan and Hidatsa forebears. The clay sculptures and works in other media on display join Luger’s ongoing series, Future Ancestral Technologies, which imagines new Native narratives in the spirit of speculative fiction.
