2023 Medici Satellite Studio Artist
Danielle SeeWalker
Danielle SeeWalker is a Húŋkpapȟa Lakȟóta citizen of the Standing Rock Sioux Nation in North Dakota. She is a visual artist, writer, activist and businesswoman currently based in Denver, Colorado. Her visual artwork often incorporates the use of mixed media and experimentation while incorporating traditional Native American materials, scenes, and messaging. Storytelling is an integral part of her artwork and pays homage to her identity as a bi-racial, Indigenous woman and her passion to redirect the narrative to an accurate and insightful representation of contemporary Native America while still acknowledging historical events.
Alongside her passion for creating visual art, Danielle is a freelance writer and recently published her first book, titled “Still Here: A Past to Present Insight of Native American People & Culture.” She is also very dedicated to staying connected and involved in her Native community and currently in her 2nd year serving as Co-Chair for the Denver American Indian Commission. Danielle has recently established a non-profit organization born from her personal, passion project that began in 2013 with her long-time friend called "The Red Road Project". The focus of the work began as a way to provide a platform for Indigenous people and communities to tell their own stories and to document this through words, video and photography. Their stories highlight the resiliency and positive actions within Indian Country. The newest division of the non-profit is to create opportunities, resources, mentorship and healing to Native American people and communities through the arts.
