We Carry the Land

We Carry the Land is an architectural exploration of space, time, and form born from an alignment of varied Indigenous foundational ways of being. Rooted in the sacredness of the natural world and informed by experiences of territorial geographic relocation, the project presents a spatial identity of what it means to be a part of the Indigenous diaspora; grounded, yet simultaneously flexible.
We Carry the Land is designed by six emerging Native architectural and graphic designers: Celina Brownotter, Anjelica S. Gallegos, Freeland Livingston, Selina Martinez, Bobby Joe Smith III, and Zoë Toledo.
This courtyard installation is commissioned and produced by Materials & Applications (M&A) as part of an ongoing collaboration between M&A and Craft Contemporary
