But Watt, an Indigenous artist known for working with textiles, and a citizen of the Seneca Nation, directs visitors’ eyes to the role the legendary Haudenosaunee “skywalkers” and the earth’s resources played in developing the Manhattan skyline. Past, present, and future collide as Watt explores the seemingly infinite recyclability of steel and the ways in which it, like the blankets she usually works with, propels legacy forward.
