Kachina Carving

Kachina is a culture which can best represent the Native Americans in Southwestern United States. The Kachina is a symbol of spirits or the simulacra of everything in the real world, from ancestors to a concept. The Hopi Kachina Dolls are carved in the form and concept as such and are used to educate children the ways of life, thus the spiritual faith and carving technique may come into heritage. They show us the unique outlook on life and cosmology of Hopis.

I am deeply moved by this whole process and wish to follow this path in my own art. Your spiritual connection to the earth is so clear and palatable, it left me very inspired.

[@sandrajohnson2489]

A few years ago I was so inspired by the beauty and meaning of the Kachina dolls that I started carving them for myself. I put a lot of love into each one and they are in my personal collection, never to be sold.

Really need to learn how to carve from my uncle. They’re very beautiful.

[@cindeemunro2296]

My Father use to carve Kachina dolls, he passed away and found all his accessories (Tools) to include an assorted amount of Kachinas not painted. If you would be interested would love to have someone who appreciate them.

[@aeromodeller1]

@@cindeemunro2296 Perhaps you could find an apprentice to make use of them. What about you? There are several woman carvers.

[@RuskiRacoon]

@@cindeemunro2296 do you plan on selling them?
