Deborah Martin
Dakota X (formerly Deborah Martin; born June 9, 1961) is a contemporary American painter. X's artistic work examines the complexities of individual experience particularly in its relation to home, gender identity, isolation and memory. Much of the artist's practice emerges in collaborative conversation with writers and poets, taking form through exhibitions and publications. X's stark landscape paintings often convey the essence inherent within marginalized communities that exist on the fringes of American society. In 2016, X focused on portraiture developing a long term project "Portraits of Autism" exploring the relationship and impact autistic children have within their immediate family and community on a continuum.
