Raven Halfmoon

Bio

Raven Halfmoon is a sculptor based in Norman, Oklahoma. She is part of the Caddo Nation, and much of her artwork is reminiscent of tried practices and symbologies often recognized by her tribal ancestors, with her own contemporary twist. Halfmoon is interested in representing the strength of the matriarchy and creates new totems of sorts in honor of the lineage of strong women in her life. She uses stoneware, and has newly introduced bronze into her practice. NEESH + SOKU (MOON + SUN), her solo exhibition at Salon 94, is her first with the gallery. It features two new works in particular that are examples of her expanding practice and exploration of different materials. One such work, “Dancing at Dusk” (2024) is made of three different colored tonalities of travertine, a stone native to the midwest, while “The Guardians” (2024) is bronze patina and stands nine feet tall.
