Who we are
The “Rez Roots” Artist Collective was formed in the winter of 2024, by artists primarily living and creating within the Oglala Lakota homelands (the Pine Ridge reservation & He Sapa territory). The intentions of this collective are to enrich cultural continuums and establish sincere opportunities that inspire the practice of creative lifestyles. The purpose of this collective is to uplift creative community and strengthen intergenerational relationships through art & creation. The collective is inclusive to creative urgency and community action. Founding members include: Maiki Ghost Bear (Oglala Lakota), Pte San Win Little Whiteman (Oglala Lakota), Marina Moon, Dora Red Owl (Oglala Lakota), Celestine Stadnick (Oglala Lakota), Nathaniel Ruleaux (Oglala Lakota), and Keith BraveHeart (Oglala Lakota)
