A Hopi-Tewa pot by Venora Silas (b. 1967, Laguna Pueblo). The pot has a wide body with a slightly flared rim that tapers down to the base. It is decorated in bird, water, and agriculture motifs, as well as intricate crosshatching and herringbone patterns. Signed on the underside, "Venora Silas, Hopi/Tewa."
