REYES & FARRELL PACHECO
Reyes and Farrell Pacheco (Santo Domingo) say their story is similar to the Tortoise and the Hare when it comes to their collaboration. “We don’t compete against each other, but there are times the Hare is quicker than the Tortoise. But the Tortoise manages to keep the Hare calm when it’s time to meet a deadline,” Reyes explains. The couple has worked together since 2012.

Kevin and Valerie Pourier (Oglala Lakota) live and work on the Pine Ridge Reservation, Medicine Root District, on the beautiful northern edge of the Badlands area of the reservation. The Lakota Peopleʼs first name, Pte Oyate kin, the Buffalo People, is the inspirational and material source of their work. As partners, they are proud to cultivate the idea that their work comes not only out of the lifeways of the People, but is also a new cultural art form. #101yearsofindigenousexcellence #IndianMarket2023 #indigenousartists
Ronni-leigh Goeman (Onondaga Nation/Eel Clan) and Stonehorse Goeman (Tonawanda Seneca/ Hawk Clan) have been creating black ash baskets with sculpture since 1998, putting their art forms together to create baskets that tell a story. Both are Haudensaunee. With similar backgrounds and culture, they create baskets that reflect Haudensaunee culture and traditions. Some reveal stories of their people’s strengths and others tell a story of hardship, pain and sorrow.
The couple’s artistry has earned honors in numerous Native American art forums, garnering awards in contemporary, traditional, and mixed media basket-making in prestigious shows including the Santa Fe Indian Market; Eiteljong, where they were awarded Best of Show and Museum Purchase Awards; Heard Museum and Heard Basket Show; Cherokee Art Market, and Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian. Their work is displayed in several museums such as National museum of American Indian, The Eiteljorg, Detroit Museum of Art, New York State Museum and others.

Spring in New Mexico means lots of wind, dust, and gives me even more reason to hunker down in my studio. New inventory @sorrelskygallery soon.

Thank you Dee Setalla for inviting our team up to see your incredible space. Dee is Hopi and creates pottery in the traditional Hopi way. This involves sourcing clay from the land, shaping with stones, painting with yucca stem brushes and firing with sheep dung. He has been a SWAIA artist for 27 years!!! #101yearsofindigenousexcellence #IndianMarket2023 #indigenousartists #santafeindianmarket
Maria “Lilly” Torivio Salvador (Acoma Pueblo) has mastered the art of a long traditional heritage. Now a well-known talented artist, she has combined the artistry of Acoma traditional pottery with being a dedicated weaver, jeweler and acrylic artist.
Maria Lilly grew up in a traditional household. In the shadow of her mother Frances, Maria Lilly became fascinated by the art of pottery. Her mother inherited her artistic values from her own mother, Teofilia Torivio, and taught Maria Lilly how to mold, shape and develop magnificent water jars and figurines with “Respect Mother Earth.” With her hands in Mother Earth clay, Maria Lilly learned the meaning and understood the art and life of pottery.
Maria Lilly hand coils and molds the clay, enhanced with natural plants, stones and other natural resources, to express significant stories, circular rain clouds, falling rain, rainbows, lightening, plants and animals or portraying the beauty of the Acoma parrot design. She is known for her traditional four-pattern designs, signifying the four directions of the Earth, and includes a line break at the mouth and the bottom of each pot to represent the still living Mother Earth.
“I hope that the legacy of Acoma pottery remains in the lives of my children and grandchildren and that my touch will continue to be embedded in the traditional art that was once shared with me, my mother and my grandmother.”

Janie Reano and Rose Reano (Santo Domingo Pueblo) are part of a multi-generation tradition of jewelry making. Rose, Janie's mother, learned from her parents, Joe Isidro Reano and Clara Lovato Reano.
One of the Rio Grande Pueblos, Santo Domingo is admired for its long adherence to tradition, which can be seen in the Reanos’ jewelry. They create necklaces made of small handmade beads known as heishi. Heishi, from the Santo Domingo word meaning “shell”, traditionally referred to shell beads. Today the term is applied to tiny handmade beads of any material. Some necklaces contain thousands of minuscule beads with diameters between 5 and 25 mm.
The Reanos also create mosaic inlay earrings, hair ornaments, pendants, pins and brooches. Shell mosaic is a centuries-old trademark Santo Domingo style. Rose often styles her jewelry on patterns created by the Ancestral Puebloans. #101yearsofindigenousexcellence #IndianMarket2023 #indigenousartists #santafeindianmarket

Jackie Larson Bread (Blackfeet) was born and raised in the shadow of the Rocky Mountains on the Blackfeet Reservation. Her grandmother left a legacy of exquisite Blackfeet beadwork for her family. Jackie loved the beaded pieces so much that she began a lifelong journey of creating beaded works of art.
While at the Institute of American Indian Arts in Santa Fe, she developed illusionary pictorial beadwork which is currently the focus of her work. She creates pictorial depth by using graduated shades of beads. She also sources traditional Plains ledger art with its vibrant color and stylized depictions, as well as delicate Blackfeet florals and bold geometric designs. The images are hand drawn and composed into intricately beaded bags, boxes and other traditional utilitarian objects.

Throughout February, SWAIA team members reached out to several Native communities to help artists with their Indian Market 2023 applications and answer their questions. Understanding that the online application process could be challenging for some artists, whether new or seasoned veterans, and Internet service could be problematic in some locations, Juliana Romano, Members & Volunteers Services, Loni Holyan, Events Manager, and Mona Perea, Artists’ Services, were on scene to help.
