East Oregonian
Tamastslikt exhibit highlights stereotypes
MISSION — Stereotypes of
Native American peoples are
ubiquitous and familiar.
An upcoming exhibit at
Tamastslikt Cultural Institute
brings together 13 contempo-
rary Native American visual art-
ists who reclaim their right to rep-
resent their identities as Native
Americans. “Savages and Prin-
cesses: The Persistence of Native
American Stereotypes” opens Fri-
day, July 5 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
The museum is located off Inter-
state 84 Exit 216, near Wildhorse
Resort & Casino. Admission is
free on the opening day.
Whether using humor, sub-
tlety, or irony, the telling is said
to be fiercely honest and dead-on.
Images and styles are created
from traditional, contemporary
and mass culture forms.
The exhibition intends to coun-
teract the disappearance of Native
portrayals. It embraces Native
Americans’ power to replace ste-
reotypical images that permeate
the current pop culture landscape.
Recognizing that stereotypes
often occur without conscious
awareness, the exhibit includes
didactic information that explores
common stereotypes about Native
peoples that are falsehoods, fol-
lowed by the truths behind them.
The artists represented include
Matthew
Bearden
(Citizen
Potawatomi-Kickapoo-Black-
feet-Lakota) mixed media artist,
painter; Heidi BigKnife (Shaw-
nee Tribe), jeweler; Mel Corn-
shucker (United Keetoowah

ware), draftsperson; Zach Presley
(Chickasaw), collage and digital
artist; Hoka Skenandore (Onei-
da-Oglala Lakota-Luiseño), mixed
media artist; Karin Walkingstick
(Cherokee Nation), ceramic artist;
and Micah Wesley (Muscogee-Ki-
owa), mixed media artist.
The exhibit runs through Oct.
19. The museum is open Monday
through Saturday from 10 a.m to
5 p.m.
Regular admission is $10 for
adults, $9 for seniors, $7 for stu-
dents/youths and free for ages
5 and under. In addition, admis-
sion is free the first Friday of each
month. Also, family passes can be
checked out of local libraries —
thanks to the Libraries of Eastern
Oregon through funding from the
Institute of Museum and Library
Services.

Dear Abby: I recently had to
put my 14-year-old dog to sleep.
I adopted her when she was 2
and had her for 12 years. She had
health issues, dementia, inconti-
nence, and more importantly, she
was no longer herself.
It was a very difficult deci-
sion, but the right one. I know
this in my heart, but I am severely
depressed. I can’t stop reliving
the image of her death. (I stayed
with her during the procedure.)
I am losing sleep and interest in
everything. I have another pet at
home (a cat), and I will soon have
my dog’s ashes back.
My kitty brings me a lot
of joy, but my house seems so
empty and quiet without my dog.
I’m not ready to adopt another
one, and not sure if I ever want
to again. I have done volunteer
work for a pet organization in the
area, but I just cannot be around
any other pets right now — espe-
cially dogs. I have a hard time
just walking down the pet aisle in
the grocery store.
I know time is the best healer,
but I can’t seem to shake this.
What would you suggest? —
Grieving For My Loss
Dear Grieving: You loved
your dog, and you have suffered
an important loss. You would not
be normal if you weren’t grieving.
Eventually the things that trigger
you will become fewer, and when
that happens, you will be ready to
move forward. Have faith in that.
If your sleeplessness and lack of
interest in things that previously
brought you happiness continue,
however, you should discuss it
with your doctor.
