Cimmaron Grover – Pakwa or Frog with Dangling Eyeballs
$595.00
Cimmaron Grover is one of the most innovative Hopi carvers. Here he has created a Paakwa or Frog with dangling eyeballs. The eyes are attached through the flat board of the katsina with white cord. I can’t decide if the eyeballs give it a scary or comical look – perhaps both. The arms are attached to the body with cord as well. The katsina is 11 1/2″ tall and 5 1/2″ wide at the arms. The body of the Frog has a large Hopi cloud design, below which are wave motifs. Also on the Frog are dots of rain and snow and bird tracks. I purchased this from Joseph and Janice Day at the now closed trading post, Tsakurshovi.
