| Pedernal:
14" X 12" SOLD |
(In the collection of Rutt Bridges)
Pedernal, a flat-topped volcanic core, is located in the Abiquiu Valley of northern New Mexico. Georgia O'Keeffe once said, "I own that mountain". However, indigenous peoples have come to that mountain for thousands of years, using the chert for making their axes, knives and arrowheads. Even tribes that did not get along, respected each other while camped there -- a recognition of common need. It is truly a "sacred space". |

| (Sold through Andrea Fisher Fine Pottery in Santa Fe, New Mexico) My Gia (mother in the Tewa language) demonstrated to me that simplicity and elegant form spoke for itself. I watched her as she worked and like the "old cook", she threw her "ingredients" together, slapped the clay around here and there and whether short or tall, wide or thin, her forms emerged simple and elegant. |
