Personally, I really appreciate
the modern design elements of Eric Lewis' work. There is something
about his pieces that transcends a particular genre or tradition,
and I'm excited to see this caliber of innovative work coming
out of the western pueblos.
This piece is exceptional
not only for it's bold designs but also for its size. Be sure
to take a closer look!
Eric Lewis is a son of noted
potter Sharon Lewis of the Acoma pueblo. He has taken classic
Acoma designs and simplified their patterns to use in a black-on-white
style which has a very modern appearance.
Although only in his 20s at
the time of this listing, he possess the rare skill of an acomplished
potter along with the innovative vision of a young contemporary.
His unique work stands out
in terms of both design and execution. We'll be watching anxiously
and waiting with great anticipation to see what great things
become of this talented artists career.
