Reuniting Bonds

ON HOLD FOR POSSIBLE ACCESSION TO NMAI
19" x 12"
Commercial Clay
Hand built , hand burnished with a rock, kiln fired, then smoke smudge fired.
The chains are the same clay.
 
This piece represents the reuniting of my family's bond sto the Caddo tribe and the culture. The hands on the end of the chains come together to teach new crafts and skills and culture. The top is a grasshouse of our tribes culture and surrounded by scenes of river canoe fishing and the alligator gar fish.
