This is a spectacular large piece from Al Qoyawayma. It is one of his architectural pieces from his architectural pieces inspired by ancient Pueblo and Hopi sites. The oval area is pushed into the clay and then the buildings are pushed back out from the inside of the bowl. This piece is one of his more complex works. There is a kiva in front and four larger tower buildings in the background. Each of the buildings is fully incised with small bricks. They are slipped with additional clays to create coloration. The body of the jar is vertically polished in an “onion skin” style, much like many ancient vessels. It is signed, “Al Qoyawayma”.
