Label TextPeter B. Jones is a renowned potter who studied under Hopi artist Otellie Loloma while attending the institute of American Indian Art in New Mexico. His pottery is admired and collected by community members, art collectors, and museums across the country. This jar is evocative of early Woodlands pottery, his hand-built coiling and slab construction pit fired in a traditional manner. Much of Jones’ art also directly reflects the issues that have impacted the Haudenosaunee.
