Created as an homage to my desert ancestors, I focus on the historical significance of Indigenous southwestern tribal adornment culture and the perpetuation of those adornment practices perpetuated into the 21st century. In honor of my Navajo & Hopi Pueblo People & my ancestral matriarchs, and male relatives who adorned themselves with elements of the earth. Be Matriarch. Hózhó Nashá- Beauty all Around. Venaya Yazzie

Indigenous Adornment is my way
Navajo/Hopi Artist Venaya Yazzie
I adorn myself to perpetuate the legacy of my ancestors. I adorn myself for protection and happiness.
I adorn myself to continue Indigenous survival.
