Priscilla Dobler Dzul
2024 Hicks Scholar
United States and Mexico
Priscilla Dobler Dzul is an interdisciplinary storyteller living between the borders of the United States and Mexico. She focuses on reframing the context of America’s prideful nationalism and colonization of indigenous cultures while critiquing identity and examining the structures of power in our domestic lives through multiple craft mediums. Her inspiration comes from a passion and commitment to indigenous heritage and ongoing research, which is driven by a commitment to making narrative change through social justice, racial equity, and artistic mastery.
Dobler Dzul received her MFA in Sculpture from the State University of New York at New Paltz. She is a recipient of grants from Artist Trust, Neddy Behnke Foundation, Nia Tero, Puffin Foundation and Robert B. McMillen Fellowship. Her work has been exhibited domestically and internationally and is represented by Nome Gallery in Berlin, Germany.
