Taawakatsina - Sun Spirit
Matted artwork print
Gerald Dawavendewa (Hopi & Cherokee)
Taawakatsina represents the sun, the creative force for all living things.
Katsinam are benevolent spirits that bring ceremonies to the Hopi. These rituals are performed throughout the year until their return to the spirit world. They represent many roles, from warriors, animals, plants, and elements such as rain and stars. As a bridge between this world and the spiritual, they remind the Hopi people of the path of life.
