I’T SÖQA T AWALAWU

(This Clay Sings)


The following “Free Verse” poetry was created in response to a request by the Heard Museum to provide an oral narration of the ” Generations in Clay” exhibit. Subsequently, the Santa Fe East Gallery in Santa Fe, New Mexico produced a publication titled “QÖYAWAYMA, Hopi Potter.”

The verse text is organized in four parts and is illustrated with Ceramic creations:

A Measure of Life

A Measure of Spirit

A Measure of Earth

A Measure of Harmony
