The Museum at Warm Springs will feature the works of American Indian artist Lillian Pitt in the exhibition “Kindred Spirits: the Artistic Journey of Lillian Pitt,” which will run from June 23 through September 19 at the museum. Pitt, who is a member of the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs and grew up on the reservation, is best known for her work as a sculptor and mixed media artist. She has also worked in clay, fiber, bronze, glass and other forms. In each chosen medium, she creates modern designs that draw on and reflect the past 12,000 years of Native American culture and history throughout the Columbia River Basin. Pitt’s art has been exhibited throughout the Pacific Northwest, nationally and internationally.
