Note Card Flowers - Gerald Dawavendewa
The land of Sìitàlpuva is where the rain refreshes the soil, seeds sprout, and all forms of life abound. A mound of rich soil holds seeds from various plants; many grow into beautiful corn ears and flowers. Above the plants, butterflies are depicted as flowers gathering under rain clouds, bringing life to the land.
Kiva Murals:
A kiva is an underground building used for ceremonies and other various functions. Some of the oldest kivas date back to 599 CE. Many of these structures contain wall paintings. Kivas are still used today by contemporary Puebloan people. Those Kiva murals inspire this artwork.
