Join New Mexico Arts (NMA) for an in-person talk at Lincoln Historic Site with NMA 2024 Artist-in-Residence Marcus Xavier Chormicle (Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians/Chicano). Chormicle is a Las Cruces-based multidisciplinary photographer who has been in residence at Lincoln Historic Site in Lincoln, New Mexico, since late February.

While in residence, Chormicle is exploring the legacy of the Oryx species in Southern New Mexico as it relates to colonizing histories of land and peoples in the region. He intends to deepen his understanding of the Oryx habitat as well as create visual representations of the animal across the Lincoln Forest, Sacramento Mountains and surrounding communities.

The mission of the NMA Artist-in-Residence Program, in partnership with New Mexico Historic Sites, is to increase awareness of significant state cultural sites through the lens of contemporary creatives.

Don't miss this opportunity to engage with Marcus Xavier Chormicle and gain insights into his artistic process and the cultural significance of his residency project. For more details and to register, visit the event page: Artist Talk with Marcus Xavier Chormicle.
