“Comic Web Weavers,
Spindles spinning,
spiraling into the
Warping of the comic calling,
Prayers embedded,
Stories revealed,
Look at me,
I’m more than a Wall Hanging.
Wrap me in your Prayers,
Shield you with Protection,
Honor your Legacy,
Find your Cosmic Calling,
as you Weave,
I’m your teacher.
Universe revealed,
You are healed.
Begin Weaving Comic Web Weaver.”

Western art has long depicted Indigenous people, lands, and lives as static, unchanging, and “primitive.” These images–depicting “uninhabited” desert landscapes–were mobilized to demonstrate the American logic of colonization. Though many assume these ideologies have faded with time, these geographic vocabularies are still present today, influencing the ways in which we all think about “the West.”

Step back in time to 1940 with this New Deal period room. Though imagined, this room represents the vision of public buildings filled with public art from floor to ceiling. The New Deal made art part of the everyday experience for many Americans.
