His artworks examine notions of safety, security and protection, not just of country, but our environment and flora and fauna.<\/p>\n<p>Hitchcock uses images of beads, bombs, floral patterns, buffalo and owls to speak about issues of indigenous historical trauma. Many of the images are interpretations of stories told by his Kiowa\/Comanche grandparents and abstract representations influenced by beadwork, land, and culture.<\/p>\n<p><strong>BIO<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>John Hitchcock is an Artist, Professor and Associate Dean of Arts at the University of Wisconsin- Madison.
