Steven Yazzie T-shirt

By MCA Denver

Exclusive and limited edition t‑shirt by Steven Yazzie for his exhibition, Meandered, at MCA Denver. 

Yazzie is a multidisciplinary artist who explores the complexities of an Indigenous experience as it relates to personal identity, community relationships, and a connection to the land as the source of life, stories, conflict, and healing. His work often draws inspiration from personal memories and immersive experiences revisiting sites in the northern region of the Navajo reservation (Dinétah) in Arizona and New Mexico, where the artist grew up. 

For his exhibition, Yazzie was commissioned to create several paintings, drawings, and a sculpture that focus on his traversing of locations in Colorado, where he resides. The exhibition’s title, Meandered, is both a metaphor for Yazzie’s artistic process and a framework for exploring organic patterns or phenomena in nature.
