Artist Bio
Miah Real Bird (Chalfant), also known as Heóvá'é'e (Yellow Haired Woman), is a Native American Contemporary Ledger and Western Artist who currently attends the Institute of American Indian Arts in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Her roots are deepest on her homelands of The Northern Cheyenne Reservation, in Southeastern Montana, where she is also an enrolled member. Being an artist and rancher has allowed her to pay homage to every aspect of her life. Studying traditional design, as far back as petroglyphs, she uses this knowledge to honor her ancestors through contemporary uses of color and modern ideas. Not only is she an artist but also a storyteller of her tribe's oral histories and teachings.
