The Evergreen

Sasquatch museum exhibit focuses on Indigenous perspectives


Listen Later

Central Oregon’s High Desert Museum’s exhibit called “Sensing Sasquatch” is interactive and multidimensional. It includes larger-than-life installations, a soundscape that evokes both the natural world and supernatural elements, and artwork that visitors are encouraged to touch and smell. The exhibit showcases Native American interpretations of the being known as Sasquatch, Bigfoot or “the big guy.” We hear from three of the artists: Charlene Moody, Frank Buffalo Hyde and Philip Cash Cash, who also co-curated the exhibit.  

 

You can see the Oregon Art Beat video of Charlene Moody working on her installation for “Sensing Sasquatch” here and listen to an interview with Philip Cash Cash and Frank Buffalo Hyde about their work for the exhibit here.
