Manfred Susunkewa Kipok Kooyemsi

Manfred Susunkewa is the originator of the Traditional style katsina movement. He is prominently featured in my new book on Hopi carvers, 1880 to present. This is his rendition of what he calls a “Kipok or Warrior Kooyemsi.” It is 10 1/2″ tall not including the feathers. He uses natural mineral and vegetal pigments exclusively.
