ITEM# 0120P Dorothy Torivio, Acoma
One of the most abstract designers in Native American ceramics, Dorothy Torivio has worked professionally at her art since 1975. By 1984, she had mastered the "op art" concept and was winning first prizes and Best of Show awards at the Gallup Ceremonial and Santa Fe Indian Market. The piece shown here is a thin-walled, highly geometric pattern representing the artist's image of four directions (crossing white lines) and yucca leaves (four white elements connected at the center) with the added touch of red dots representing snowflakes.

Size:  9" high by 7-3/4" diameter.
