Immersion: Along the Cimarron by Liz Dueck
This installation invites a gentle pause — a moment to listen, breathe, and be with the Cimarron River. Created by Liz Dueck with earth pigments, campfire charcoal, clay, and gathered materials from its banks, the work extends an invitation to engage mindfully: to draw with what the land offers, or simply to sit in quiet reflection.
The accompanying soundtrack, “Along the Cimarron” by Joseph Mohmed, weaves field recordings from the river with classical composition. First conceived for the 2024 group eco-art exhibition of the same name, this intimate evolution deepens the dialogue — between sound and stillness, river and hand, presence and place.

Kahâriwis â Concrète by Warren Realrider
The piece features concrete sculptures, photographs, and other media outside and within The Bird House.
Kahâriwis is Realrider’s ongoing research project taking a focused look at the touch points and movements of Petrochelidon pyrrhonota (cliff swallows), Ĉahriksiĉahriks (Pawnee Nation), and settler infrastructures through the ecological time cycles and landscape layers of the central plains/Pâriru’.
Obtuse Social Cues by Aaron “Elvis Cow” Smith
Tulsa-based artist Aaron “Elvis Cow” Smith! “Obtuse Social Cues” transforms the space into a sensory-overload funhouse, bursting with Aaron’s vivid, enigmatic mixed-media work. Graffiti spills across eclectic surfaces, familiar shapes emerge and dissolve—chaotic, magnetic, and impossible to ignore. It’s physical and fleeting, joyful and unnerving. Art made for friends, for the thrill of it, because there’s no other way. Curated by Brad Rose.
Invisible Tethers by Brad Rose
Invisible Tethers is an installation at The Bird House by Brad E. Rose. It immerses visitors in the wind through sound – an eight-foot built wind harp and accompanying sound piece – and a custom-made scent. Invisible Tethers invites the audience to sit, to dream, to remember. Blank cards line the walls inside The Bird House and participants are encouraged to write down or draw what they imagine or remember and attach it back to the wall to hang through the winter months, falling apart and fading back into the ether.
Invisible Tethers is part of The Bird House’s Impermanence Series.
