South Dakota Virtual Exhibit Video – Art on the Land

Presented for international viewing and study

About the Exhibit

This virtual collection brings together a series of plein-air paintings created across the lands of South Dakota — from the Missouri River to the Black Hills. Each piece captures not just scenery, but history: the dialogue between land and memory, between Native heritage and artistic reflection. Because many viewers in China cannot access U.S.-based platforms, this version of the exhibit has been uploaded to Bilibili for open cultural exchange.

Artist’s Reflection

South Dakota is a story in layers — earth, wind, and time.
Each painting became a conversation with the land itself:
with the Lakota and Dakota spirit that still lives here,
with the silence that holds more truth than words.

This virtual gallery is not just a record of places —
it is an offering to friendship, to understanding,
and to the beauty that connects us all beyond borders.
