Wood's unique style is a testament to his diverse experiences and profound connection to his surroundings.
Wood's academic background includes studies at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and the Savannah College of Art and Design. His passion for printmaking led him to the Tamarind Institute in Albuquerque, where he was among a select group of eight students. After graduating in May 2019, Wood contributed to the art community as adjunct professor of printmaking at the Institute of American Indian Arts and as an assistant to Native artists in Santa Fe and Corrales. His vision includes publishing works by contemporary Native artists and educating both printmakers and visual artists about the edition process.
In 2024, Wood's exhibition "Eastern Classics" showcased a collection of paintings and prints that reflected his deep appreciation for Eastern aesthetics and philosophies. This body of work was well-received, highlighting his ability to blend traditional techniques with contemporary themes.
The upcoming exhibition, "Śaśin: Possessing the Rabbit," promises to continue this exploration, offering new works that delve into themes of nature, mythology, and personal narrative.
