Sikyatki Birds

Deriving both its title and key elements of its composition from artifacts found at the Sikyátki archaeological site of a former Hopi village, Tammy Garcia’s Sikyatki Birds is an engrossing ‘1 of 1’ foundry proof bronze sculpture with mixed patinas that resembles a large, ornate tapestry rippling in a light breeze. The softly curved bronze panel is covered in bold design motifs that resonate with Garcia’s personal style. Among them are three curling heads and beaks of birds, accentuated by a vibrant turquoise patina, inspired by designs found on ceramics from the Sikyátki site. The composition is intricate, elaborate, and deeply inspired, making Sikyatki Birds a triumph of design and creative vision.

As a “#1/1 Foundry Proof,” this sculpture can be considered the true original of this artwork. Its availability is a rare opportunity.
