Kateri Sanchez Quandelacy

S O L D The Quandelacy family has proven its desire and capacity to pass on the sculpting knowledge, experience and techniques of the previous carving generations to their new generations of artists. Faye, Sandra and Stuart have passed their maiden knowledge to Vicki, Kateri, Chad and Talia and they have all created their personal renditions of the Do: Ewa deities. This huge table fetish was created in 2007 of catlinite or pipestone from Utah shale deposits and weighs almost a pound! One side is an olla maiden carrying a water jar full of crushed Sleeping Beauty turquoise. The other side is a traditional corn maiden motif with a kernel torso and robe. Both side share a butterfly maiden hairdo, a traditional Puebloan style for unmarried maids only. They also each have necklaces, the corn maiden has inlays of amber, Pipestone and red coral. The olla maiden has a necklace of Sleeping Beauty Pipestone only. The eyes and mouth are inlaid of jet and the sculpture is signed Kateri Sanchez Quandelacy Zuni '07.
