Linda Tafoya-Sanchez is known for her deep carved pottery and use of traditional designs. This bowl is an exceptionally complex piece of her pottery. There are five interlocking medallions, each with a separate design. The idea for the interlocking medallions came from a relative of hers competing in a hoop-dance competition. Here, each of the circles has a different design. They include rain clouds, mountains and forest, Kiva steps and plants, a bear paw and wind over the pueblos. For a piece this size, there is amazing amount of carving! The bowl is fully stone polished to a high shine and traditionally fired. It is signed on the bottom, “Linda Tafoya-Sanchez”.
