The girl is dressed for the Corn Dance and wearing a traditional tablita. Here she is sitting on an overturned stepladder and talking into her cell phone. Jason was able to capture that look on her face, wondering when she needed to return to the dance or who might be looking for her! In the background is the kiva and the kiva ladders extending upward. There is also a TV satellite which is Jason’s way to indicate it is Santa Clara Pueblo, as St. Claire is the patron saint of both the Pueblo and TV. In the sky is his hallmark raincloud with all his various clay colorations. This piece is signed with his Tewa name, Okuu Pin, which means Turtle Mountain. This tile is hand-built from native clay. All of the colors are derived from Native clay and traditionally fired.
