Florentino Martinez ZUNI PUEBLO FETISH CARVER |
|||
Florentino Martinez is an accomplished Zuni carver who often uses fossilized ivory or amber to carve bugs and insects. Florentino's first carvings in the early 1990s were simple, however, by 1996 his fetishes became very intricate, precise and detailed. Florentino carves more complex fetish art forms, including fetish animals and the Kolowisi or Zuni Water Serpent. Florentino's cousins, including Esteban Najera and Lewis Malie, are also fine Zuni carvers. | |||
