This Indian pot displayed at the Aztec Ruins in N.W. New Mexico has a most lovely design and the fact that pottery was such an art form, culturally, among the New Mexico area indians for ulitarian purposes is notable.
I could write more about how the past designs influence the present design, or how creating art for the everyday is a way to live, or how cultures expressed themselves through design...
But I won't. I'll just leave this image and others on my Flickr Aztec Ruins set.
I love this style of pottery. Simple and elegant.
