Aanu Grewal ARTH 2060 Indigenous Arts of the Americas December 21 st , 2021 Response #11 1. Discuss Praba Pilar’s art practice with corn in terms of 1-3 key words from the first chapter of our textbook on North American Arts (you could consult our slides from the first week, or the book chapter itself). In doing so, answer the question: what connections do you see between North and South American Indigenous arts practices in Pilar’s work? Three key words from Praba Pilar’s art practice that can be used to discuss the connections between North and South American Indigenous art’s practices would Be Worn, be exhibited as art, and Mediate relationships in a community and between communities. These three key words from the first chapter of our textbook resonate the most when talking about the connections between North and South American Indigenous arts practices. One thing I realized that both communities have is the importance of Indigenous art. Both North and South American Indigenous arts are used in multiple ways however, the first connection I had found was that need for their art to be worn by the communities themselves. The communities take pride in their art often connecting them to their culture, so as a result they wear it to show the pride they have in their culture. Another connection was the North and South American Indigenous art’s practices would be exhibited as art in many showcases, online in modern day, etc. This was needed to showcase the beauty behind the art, the meaning behind the piece, etc. Lastly, I noticed the large amount of influence the art had on mediating relationships in a community and between a community. Many indigenous individuals come together due to multiple different factors an example being the No More Stolen Sisters movement, however, a large factor is the beloved art
of the indigenous community. Many individuals come together to either create art, admire it, buy it, etc. and not only are these individuals indigenous but also from different communities which results in the relationships often mediate as indigenous people come together as one for the sake of both North and South American arts practices.
