Catalogue for an exhibition from September 8 to December 9, 1996. Light edgewear with surling at corners. "A multi-media installation combining painting with sculptural installations, HOUSE MADE OF STARS is a created environment based on Aboriginal stellar knowledge, a worldview connecting human and cosmic forces. In this work, Cutschall draws on traditional dwelling and ceremonial structures of the Northern Plains Aboriginal [and Lakota] culture in two and three dimensional forms to explore spiritual aspects of the traditional culture and the role these structures play in connecting earth-bound life to the larger system of universal order. At the same time, the work speaks to political issues, such as the legal and cultural conflicts surrounding Aboriginal sacred sites." - introduction by Shirley Madill.
