Tia Keobounpheng is an American artist informed by historic, ancestral, and epigenetic perspectives. She translates her personal reconciliation of an absent narrative in her lineage into complex, geometric, thread abstraction over drawings on wood. She expresses her reconnection to her suppressed Sámi bloodlines, ancestral land, and living-relatives in Swedish-Sápmi as a technically-skilled method that is as disconnected from traditional techniques as she has been from the culture that’s been buried in her blood memory for generations.
