The land where I was raised embodies the Navajo concept of hózhó, representing harmony, beauty, and balance. --Eugene Tapahe

People, places, and eras come together in balance in this reverently spectacular installation by Diné artist Eugene Tapahe. As you traverse Kéyah, we invite you to ponder the diversity of the sands we walk upon and the unity, holiness, and healing humanity so desperately needs.  Viewers will be able to explore their relationship to the land and ruminate on how to create hózho, a Diné concept that focuses on harmonious connections of balance and beauty.
