This recorded presentation by Jeremy Dennis is part of the artist speaker series, coinciding with the exhibit Each One Inspired: Indigenous Art Across the Homelands on view at the New York State Museum from September 5, 2023 to June 2, 2024. The exhibit features 53 original artworks selected from the Museum’s contemporary Indigenous art collection, including Nothing Happened Here #2 a photograph by Shinnecock photographer Jeremy Dennis. Dennis’s photography centers on Indigenous histories on Long Island and the complex, inter-dependent relationships between Indigenous people, non-Indigenous people, land, water, and animals that co-exist there.
Additional funding for this program was sponsored by the Touhey Foundation.
