Bio:
Navajo horsehair pottery is a ceramic tradition developed by Native American artists in the Southwestern United States. The technique involves placing horsehair onto hot pottery immediately after firing, leaving distinctive organic black markings on the surface. Each piece is unique, and the method became particularly popular among Navajo artists during the second half of the twentieth century.
