Category: Pottery | Posted by | Thu, Jan 12th 2017, 5:46pm
Today, Hopi Pueblo potter Mark Tahbo is mimicking those potters of more than a hundred years ago, who were mimicking those of almost a thousand years before their time. Just like the potters of the 1890s were reintroducing designs from the Sikyatki potters, Mark Tahbo is reintroducing designs from the potters of the 1890s. He is using designs from Polacca Polychrome pottery as his inspiration for some of his pottery today.
