Kade Twist: To Keep a Fire

CSUF Grand Central Art Center (GCAC) presents To Keep a Fire representing five new works by artist Kade Twist that poke a stick at the unresolved tensions between market-driven systems, consumerism, and American Indian cultural self-determination.

The exhibition is a fragmented ceremonial ground, of sorts, comprised of sculpture, video, sound, and smell that present unexpected histories, desires, experiences, sequences, and artifacts of contemporary colonization and neoliberal violence.

The artist sees this work as a graphic score, or conceptual map, for a future socially engaged piece that will develop at Grand Central Art Center over the course of 2023 and
