Aliens and Art with Frank Buffalo Hyde—S2 Bonus Interview

About this episode

The episode features an interview with artist Frank Buffalo Hyde discussing the intersection of UFOs and tribal histories in art.

Wild Thing is re-releasing its bonus interviews! UFOs, aliens, other-worldly beings—all have appeared in art over the centuries (including, possibly, in Renaissance-era paintings). But some of the most recent depictions appear in the works of Frank Buffalo Hyde, an Onondaga artist who uses UFOs to talk about tribal histories and lore.
