Orlando Allison
Orlando Allison is a self-taught visual Hopi artist with his works predominantly in acrylic gouache medium on birchwood panel. He defines his paintings as “Precision Art” through careful application of machine-like but manual methods visually resulting in a technical display of color, graphic design, collage-like design, and archetypes. Growing up on the reservation, his earliest most vivid memories are of brilliant dancing tapestry attire a vast variety of Katsinam adorn. Naturally, Orlando’s work encompasses an intricate portrait of Hopi design and customs emphasizing the timeless quality innate within Hopi praxis. Orlando’s art confronts audiences directly at their core that is earnestly seeking a profound accessible relationship with places we inhabit.
