Hopi Arts from the American Southwest

Hopi art is created in the desert of Northern Arizona

The Hopi Reservation is surrounded by the Navajo Nation and is a dry and barren land. Arts and crafts are an important source of income.

Pottery is the most well-known art form . Coiled pots are decorated with designs like those found on pottery recovered from archeological digs.

Potters who sign their work, like Nampeyo, have become famous.
