Elisa Pritzker 2018  

About five years ago, my art came to reflect my fascination with the Selknam People from Patagonia [Argentina and Chile]. Due to a genocide during the 20th century the Selknams are now extinct. I’m inspired by their shamanic ritualistic ceremonies along with their body painting. Inspired by their use of ALL resources, I'm constantly driven to utilizing what nature provides [stones, sticks, bones, etc.] and what's already  available in my own studio.   “Bringing the past into current view makes it extremely relevant -in the now- for the understanding of the entire human race” 

Items for Preesentation:

1. Energy Catcher

2. ​Selknam Magic Stone

3. Totems
