Visions and Voices was exhibited in 1998 at the Arizona State Museum  on the campus of the University of Arizona in Tucson. The exhibit of ninety drawings depicts the individual qualities of American Indians in today's society. Shipman met with each of the participants personally and presented their portraits with quotes from them. The exhibit portrays Native Americans as human beings with feelings and fears of their own—it does not keep them in the past, but presents them as they are today. In early 1999, the exhibit traveled to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. Later that year it was displayed at the former Carnegie Library near the State Capitol Building of Arizona.

While Visions and Voices depicts the achievements and suffering of man, Das Gold denies the concept of man’s self-confidence and glory.
