Portfolio Example & Materials Statement
Naiomi Glasses

For the weavings I make, I use wool, natural or dyed, and I weave my pieces on an upright Navajo loom, using the same techniques and tools that our Diné ancestors have been using, through plain weave and twill. All of my work incorporates traditional Navajo weaving patterns and designs. I design all of my work based on traditional Navajo textile patterns.
