All
life is rhythmic. We see it in the coming an going of
day and nigh; the ebb and flow of the tides; the swaying
of trees in the wind...the beating of the human heart.
We respond to rhythm when we sense it and seek it out
when it is not present. Little wonder that throughout
the history of mankind, people from all over the world
have prized drums - the instrument of rhythm. In Taos,
New Mexico, native craftsmen from the Taos Pueblo
continue the age-old tradition of drum making. Each
completed drum has its own distinct voice, so
please come to Pueblo Southwest and share the spirit
of the drum

| Kachina
dolls are life-like images or carvings called "TIHU"
by the Hopi Indians of Arizona. These carved and
painted figures are made of wood, usually the soft
roots of the cottonwood tree. The figures are not
idols or objects of worship but accurate images of
of the live kachina dancers of Hopi traditions. The
Kachinas
carried by Pueblo Southwest are carved by
Dwight Yazzie, who although he is Navajo, has carved
his dolls in the Hopi Tradition. He has signed each
carving and has written on it the Hopi name and a
short explanation of its symbolism. |
