Moquino, Ty – “Remember the Past” Clay Mask
$ 2,500.00
Ty Moquino is the 24-year-old son of noted potter Jennifer Tafoya. This is one of his new clay mask series. This series is entitled “Past, Present, Future”. His masks has been inspired by the science fiction he has read, along with being a commentary on the environment, sustainability, and Indigenous Futurism. This mask is entitled, “Remember the Past”. The mask has three fully polished circular areas. There are raised ridges that are slipped with mica. The remainder of the mask is fully polished. The style of the mask is meant to represent reflection on the past. Ty’s precision in his work is exceptional, as is the polishing and contrast of micaceous and polished surface. The piece was traditionally fired and we had a metal museum mount made for it so that it will stand as a sculpture. It is great to see new work from this creative potter. It is signed on the back, “Ty”.
