Biography
Ryan Singer, a Diné (Navajo) artist, currently resides and works out of his studio in downtown Albuquerque, New Mexico. Heavily influenced by punk music and the underground art scene, his work is often considered to be a part of a “new wave” of young Native artists. Ryan's distinctive use of vibrant colors, juxtapositions of traditional Native imagery with popular Western culture, and his satirical portrayals of modern Indian identity, have earned him numerous awards including an artist fellowship from the Southwestern Association for Indian Arts (SWAIA) in 2011 and the first ever “Adult Smile Award” at the 2008 SWAIA Santa Fe Indian Market.
