Naomi St I (1980) captures an intimate moment of a Navajo woman bending gracefully forward, her dark hair gathered in a bun, draped in rich red ochre garments with flowing cream-white covering. She bends solicitously over a beautiful Acoma pottery vessel decorated with traditional geometric patterns, her bare feet grounding the composition. Gorman’s lithographic technique brings warmth and dimensionality to the fabric textures and the burnished surface of the sacred pottery. This state I variation exemplifies his masterful rendering of cultural objects and feminine grace.
