Ceremony

Description

Ceremony by Kirby Sattler

The ultra-detailed artwork of Kirby Sattler is fueled by an inherent interest in the Indigenous Peoples of the Earth.  His Native American Indian portraits evolve from the history, ceremony, mythology, and spirituality of the Plains Indian. Sattler examines this culture that had no hard line between the sacred and the mundane.
At first glance, you’re so struck by the incredible detail and authenticity that you might assume that Sattler’s primary objective is to create a historically accurate portrayal of his subject. Wrong. Although he is meticulous about creating a true-to-life depiction of the clothing, artifacts and cultural traditions of the Northern Plains Native Americans, Sattler is more concerned with capturing a sense of spirituality and reverence.
