Artist Biography

Chase Kahwinhut Earles is a Caddo artist, master potter, and cultural educator from Oklahoma dedicated to reviving the nearly lost pottery traditions of the Caddo Nation. After reconnecting with his heritage as an adult, he immersed himself in the study of traditional Caddo art, history, and lifeways. A graduate of the Savannah College of Art and Design, Earles creates both traditional pottery and contemporary sculptural works that explore Native identity, history, and resilience. Chase teaches workshops, lectures, and demonstrations nationwide at museums, schools, and universities, helping educate both the public and Native communities about Caddo culture. His evolving body of work is represented in exhibitions and museum collections across the United States.
