Om værket
In 2018 artist Raven Chacon (Diné) was invited to collaborate with the Oregon East Symphony, in Pendleton, and Crow’s Shadow Institute of the Arts, on the nearby Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation, to create a musical composition and corresponding screenprint. Both works thematize horses, an animal that has long been important to the Umatilla community. In creating the print, seen here, Chacon redrew graphs from a December 1874 article in Popular Science Monthly titled “The Paces of the Horse.” Whereas the original graphs referred to the legs of the horse, with each set of lines representing a different gait, Chacon changed the labels to compass directions written in the Umatilla language for the musicians to interpret. The imagery in the print forms part of the musical notation for the drummers, one small piece of a long and complicated score.
