JASON LUJAN CHIRICAHUA APACHE NEW YORK, USA CONCEPTUAL ARTIST VISITING ARTIST, 2005 My art serves a means to both control and release my identity as an Indian. It’s not so much a reflection of cultural values as a narrative of how and what Native culture could look like once it escapes the boundaries of traditionalism and parochialism. 64 My participation with the NAP allowed me to experience indigenous material pasts within contemporary contexts. I handled ancient objects and considered them not for their original virtues, but for what purpose they served now. The comparisons between the objects and myself, as a person (with all that the term American Indian implies), has intensified my desire to create, create, create. I want to produce a body of work that reminds the audience that Native objects seen and presented in museums are being presented outside of their original context. In the museum environment Native objects are disconnected from their makers’ original intent. Generally, museum audiences tend to view cultural objects within the frame- work of the institution, in a rarified status that becomes perceived as being their natural state. I want to illustrate the impossibility of speaking authentically about the Indian experience in this environment.
