In her work, Alaskan artist Sonya Kelliher-Combs offers a chronicle of the ongoing struggle for self-definition and identity in the Alaskan context. Her combination of shared iconography with intensely personal imagery demonstrates the generative power that each vocabulary has over the other. Similarly, her use of synthetic, organic, traditional, and modern materials moves beyond oppositions between Western/Native culture, self/other, and man/nature, to examine their interrelationships and interdependence while also questioning accepted notions of beauty. Kelliher-Combs' process puts her work in dialogue with ideas of skin, the surface by which an individual is mediated in culture. This beautifully illustrated monograph will introduce her work to an expanded audience who are interested in the role that art can play in commenting on land, people, climate change, and migration.
