Marquis Dann-Lente (1970-2005)

Marquis Dann-Lente (1970-2005) is the son of a Laguna mother and Hopi father and, in pueblo tradition, identifies with the heritage of his mother.  He did choose to use the hyphenated name of his father, Dann, and his mother, Lente.  He was born in 1970 and passed away in 2005 at the young age of 35 years.

Marquis used all traditional aspects of pottery production—potsherds as temper, native clay, hand coiling construction, and mineral and vegetal paints.
