MEMO August 2, 2019
To: Jamie Saitta, Parks & Recreation Dept., City of Bozeman
Mitch Overton, Parks & Recreation Dept., City of Bozeman
From: Jim Madden, Mountain Time Arts (MTA)
Mountain Time Arts is pleased to request a temporary public art installation to be displayed in
Story Mill Community Park from Friday, August 23 to Friday, August, 30, 2019. We request to
install five (5) banners along the pathway between the Park Community Center and the Griffin
Drive park access point (see site plan below). The banners would form an interesting visual
display for visitors attending MTA's event at the Story Mill Buildings on the evenings of August
28 and 29 as well as being a cultural enhancement to the park during the last week of August.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Mountain Time Arts will present five (5) photographic banners by photographer Adam Sings In
The Timber, featuring five Native women with ties to Bozeman. Sings In The Timber has created
five portraits with an intertribal group of women who reside in the Gallatin Valley, using familiar
Bozeman landmarks as his backdrops. This project is part of Sings In The Timber's
"Indigenizing Colonized Spaces"series. Sings In The Timber photographs women who are
descendants of tribes that originally lived in specific regions. Sings In The Timber's portraits help
us to see familiar sites in new ways.
The featured women are community leaders, artists, activists, and students: Florence Doyle
(Apsaalooke), Alisha Nicole Fisher (Tsitsistas and Apsaalooke), Shakira Glenn (Apsaalooke),
Jaya King (Amskapi Pikuni) and Francesca Pine Rodriguez (Apsaalooke and Tsitsistas).
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Adam Sings In The Timber is an enrolled member of the Crow (Apsaalooke) Nation in Montana,
USA. Adam was born in Montana and grew up in the Midwest of the USA. He studied
photojournalism at the University of Montana, Missoula. Currently based in Chicago, Illinois, his
work captures the beauty and complexities of Native American culture.
