And its not a coincidence, traveling south of Spain has brought to live in one of the oldest cities of Spain – Seville, during the summer time with +48 degrees in a tiny little room of an ancient building next to another ancient 16th century building which is the main General Archive of Native American Indians, has been quite inspirational to face this great culture more than ever before. Eventually share it with others.
This exhibition of Native American Indian portraits has been created with the aim not to ask for unnecessary controversy and personal dislikement.
It is a peaceful space of pure enjoyment and nice contributions, with big desire to share own passion and surround self with more likeminded people.
Like any other peace of art made with love and care.
Being inspired by Sioux Nation, heart touching and wise speeches, written in the Native American war of spiritual trivialization and appropriation.
Imagining Native American itself as wild sunflower, generous and real.
