Black Marble Badger by Derrick Kaamasee
Carefully shaped by Zuni artisans, fetishes are a physical embodiment of a living spirit. Traditionally, native peoples of the Southwest created carvings to represent the totem animals of the Six Cardinal Directions (the pivotal points of nature). Today, fetishes are fashioned after a diverse selection of animals and spirits; each with their own meanings, strengths, and weaknesses. These sculptures are made from a variety of materials, mostly stone and mineral, but organic mediums are also used, such as tagua nut and antler.
3 x 1 1/4 x 1/2
Badger (Donashi): Badger is aggressive and tenacious. Keeping Badger’s behavior in mind can help one accomplish a specific goal or purpose as it has a great ability to focus. Traditionally, healing properties are attributed to Badger
Derrick has been carving since the late 80's. Cousin of Esteban Najera and nephew of Pernell(d) and Max Laate. Derrick is known for his innovative approaches to capturing the intricate textures and forms of feathers, always avoiding repetitive patterns in his depictions of the wing coverts and scapulars.
