“As an artist, I create through the lens of my experience and my paintings encapsulate my thoughts, feelings and values. Deeply influenced by traditional indigenous ways of life both past and present, I draw inspiration from cultural aspects like storytelling, song, dance, regalia, community, & spiritual connectedness." - Christopher Sweet
Artist
Christopher Sweet is a contemporary Native American artist, born and raised in Wisconsin. Sweet is an enrolled member of the Ho-Chunk Nation and is also White Earth Ojibwe through his father. Christopher has been artistic all his life and is mostly self-taught. This motivation to learn ignites creating through experimentation with different techniques, styles, and materials.
An opportunity for solo exhibition in 2016 presented itself and this led to pursuing art as a career. Since that time, Christopher has been a recipient of awards in juried art shows along with having his art being featured in printed materials, corporate spaces, schools, medical facilities and procured for private collections.
