Indigenous Artist Born with One Arm, One Leg Creates Colorful World

Excerpt from Syracuse.com:

Frank Buffalo Hyde, an Indigenous artist who’s been featured at the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian and other museums across the United States, was born with one arm and one leg due to a birth defect after his father was exposed to Agent Orange.

In this episode of “Enable: The Disability Podcast,” he speaks about the use of prosthetics and other resources, the ways he tried to avoid feeling different as a child, and the healing power of humor and pop culture in his colorful artwork. Other topics include Bigfoot, Sasquatch, UFOs and cryptozoology, plus the reality TV competition he appeared on.

Frank Buffalo Hyde: Native Americana on view at the Everson Museum of Art from June to September 2023.
