Ramona Sakiestewa

Ramona Sakiestewa incorporates abstract, ritual imagery and postmodern artistic methods in her dimensionally constructed tapestries and works on paper. Adapted from ancient Pueblo techniques, Sakiestewa’s watercolors serve as starting points for her highly regarded architectural and site work. Whether art, interiors, or products, her colorful and sophisticated work repurposes an ancient aesthetic to meet modern interests.
