Thank you Lillia, Alex alexsokolart and team SWC Magazine for this incredible opportunity to educate globally about the 1680 Pueblo Revolt! 🙏🏽🙌🏽 🔃• swcontemporary Virgil Ortiz is an educator. A traditional Cochiti potter whose work spans more than a dozen media, Ortiz’s monumental artistic practice carries the Pueblo Revolt of 1680 into the future, asking questions about historical memory and consciousness, Indigenous futurisms and pedagogy, and Indigenous agency in the face of settler colonialism. ⁠ ⁠ In our latest issue, Radical Futures, Lillia McEnaney traces Ortiz’s career, from his roots in traditional clay to his latest experiments in AI and AR. ⁠ ⁠ Drawing from his community’s roots in social commentary, Ortiz crafts a future without limitations.
