Description

Adrian Standing Elk Pinnecoose is a 36-year-old Navajo/Southern Ute male who graduated from the University of New Mexico's School of Architecture and Planning. He has a Bachelor of Arts in Architecture and a Master of Science in Architecture: Computational Ecologies. As a contemporary artist, I am known for producing innovative pieces that explore and push forward the limits of computer-generated design. My culture, my identity, my values are intertwined into the fabrication of my art to begin the conversation of opening doors for the next generation of Indigenous artists. “My work is in a constant flux of evolution from year to year when I started doing graphic design. One of the main goals for me is to highlight engagement and to draw upon social connections. I want my designs to pull you in and the more you look, the more you discover within each piece. I like to quantify my life experiences and abstraction to connect with my audience."
