Ugly House on the Prairie

2020

Ugly House on the Prairie is an admission of complicit guilt held by each and every one of us who has inadvertently profited from the obliteration of the First Peoples of North America.  It is a critique on the insidious nature of the Industrial Revolution, which has only wrought us with a climate crisis as relentless as the heightened state of consumerism that has brought our planet to this precipice.  Ugly House on the Prairie is beautiful, ephemeral, interactive, welcoming—and it’s all a disguise.
