Beginning With Home and Into the Forever: A Conversation with and between Eliza and Nora Naranjo Morse Nov. 14

Free for Wheelwright Members with Registration | Non Members $15 with Registration

Registration closes Nov 13.
Join us for this special event with Eliza and Nora Naranjo Morse (Kha’P’o Owenge) as they discuss their work together and provide vital insight into their artistry and relationship. Both artists have exhibited internationally.

Nora Naranjo Morse is a mixed-media artist and poet and is well known for her work in clay. For her site-specific work at the Wheelwright Museum, Into the Forever (2025), she has sculpted discarded items—burlap chili sacks, wire, and other detritus—from the Jornada del Muerto (Dead Man’s Journey) and transformed these found materials into bulbous sculptures and molecular webs that evoke a busy network of intersecting pathways.

In her mural, Making Our Way Every Day. Transformation. 2020-2023, Eliza Naranjo Morse merges traditional and modern aesthetics and explores how history and culture inform contemporary presentations of the self. Exploring aspects of human experience, she creates mural-sized drawings and paintings of anthropomorphic characters in landscapes.

Presented in partnership with SITE Santa Fe.
Moderated by Wheelwright Executive Director Henrietta Lidchi.
