This is a clay boat by Anita Fields. She says her boats are about carrying our dreams. This boat is made from clay and has 2 dragonflies on the bow. In the center, there is a house, also made from clay. The “roof” of the house is made of cloth. There is also a clay bundle that sits in front of the house. The bundle is what carries one’s dreams. The cloth roof of the house had a photo of an Osage wedding dress in the material. It is a large and complex piece. It is from 1998, and surprisingly, a piece that Anita had put back in her own storage and just recently found! It is signed on the bottom: “Anita Fields”
“I have a choice…There is a time for each of us to step up and be apart of the culture.” Anita recognizes there is a powerful connection that is made for her through cultural teachings. [Her] hand formed ceramic works led to references found in the Osage genesis narratives.” Anita Fields, Fluent Generations
