Episode description
As Dartmouth College celebrates three milestone anniversaries, we meet acclaimed visual artist Mateo Romero, Class of 1989. Raised in Berkeley, California, Mateo is a member of the Cochiti Pueblo tribe and now lives and works in New Mexico.
Romero belongs to a large family of accomplished painters, photographers, and ceramists who are preserving, documenting, and celebrating Indigenous culture—as well as depicting the landscapes to which Native Americans feel spiritually connected.
Romero talks with his friend and classmate, podcast host Jennifer Avellino, about what has most profoundly influenced and emboldened his work as it has evolved.
