Winter Count

Winter Count currently consists of five members, based in New Mexico and elsewhere. They produce film, video, sound installation works, performance, sculpture, drawing, storytelling, and song composition. Since 2016, they have been focused primarily on gathering audio and video in Standing Rock, ND, the Oceti Sakowin camp, Missouri and Cannonball Rivers, Lake Oahe, the DAPL route, the Bakken oil fields, Lake Sakakawea, and the land holding all these things. The collective is named for a pictorial calendar on which Native Americans in North America record tribal events. Winter Counts were used most extensively by Plains Indians.
