Stella Nall is a Montana based multimedia artist and poet. She is a First Descendant of the Úuwuutasshe (Greasy Mouth) clan of the Apsáalooke (Crow) Tribe, and her Crow name is Bisháakinnesh (Rode Buffalo) and was given to her by Ronnie Yellowmule. Her work often engages with current issues pertaining to Indigenous identity, visibility and representation; while also inviting connection from people of all backgrounds by discussing ubiquitous human experiences such as love, loss, joy and grief.
She graduated from the University of Montana in 2020 with a BFA in Printmaking, a BA in Psychology and a minor in Art History and Criticism. She now lives in Missoula, where she is represented by Radius Gallery. Her work may be viewed as murals across Montana, as well as in national public collections, including The Montana Museum of Art and Culture, The Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian, and The IAIA Museum of Contemporary Native Arts. Publications featuring her work include Scribendi, Cutbank, Denver Quarterly, McClain’s Printmaking Catalog, Montana Quarterly, The Thalweg, Stray, Word Dog, and Poetry Northwest. |
