About the Artist

(Born 1961, Hopi) The best lineage for a Hopi potter revolves around the original Nampeyo. Carla is this revered potter's great granddaughter as well as the granddaughter of Fannie Nampeyo.

Carla respects the traditional process of digging clay and firing. Her carved motifs stem from her father, Thomas Polacca's aesthetic.
