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

Jane Werito Yazzie my maternal grandmother's birthday
Today September 15, 2026 would have been her 96th birthday.
Woman of the Hooghanli clan kinship.
I imagine her Jane Werito Yazzie, my maternal grandmother, and think of how beautiful she would have been. After she left this earth life seemed impossibly lonely, but life and God had His plan in place and slowly life became okay. I miss her and her presence of love and compassion. Today I recognize and celebrate her life live here in this space.
Everyday I got to be present with her was a blessing, she brought joy and goodness wherever we roamed together.
"Mom" was my sanctuary, she was my rock. What a blessing in life to have her by my side. Happy Birthday I love you!
