Good afternoon, with your respect. Like my father and grandfather before me, I create what comes through my mind, heart, soul and culture.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
My drum, that is where our sound of our heart beat lies, through song, dance and gathering of the Tewa people, all people come to be blessed with rejuvenated life. There are many types of art I do.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from waking up everyday and giving thanks to the creator. When I finish a piece of work it's like the creator has guided and inspired me to continue creating. I just retired and must take the time to create.
What would you do with $25,000?I would repair the roof on my father's gallery and make it accessible to all people. It is one of those 70's government hud built home. Our father with the help of his sons built a Kiva type gallery attached to the hud home. He passed away in 93 and never saw his dream come true.
