The following description was submitted by the event organizer.

Bury the Hatchet is artist John Hitchcock’s mixed-media, cross-disciplinary, multisensory installation. Hitchcock combines his interests in printmaking, rock ’n’ roll, and Kiowa and Comanche history into one visual expression that offers a retelling of the narrative of the American frontier.  Bury the Hatchet explores issues of assimilation, acculturation, and indoctrination through oral history and music.

The exhibition has an accompanying limited-edition 12-inch vinyl album, CD and a set of leterpress prints available through Sunday Night Records (sundaynightrecords.com). Sound recordings include the artist on pedal steel guitar with soundscapes of cello, clarinet, accordion, and guitars by the band The Stolen Sea.
