The Story

This detailed one-piece carving by Hopi artist Paul Sewemaenewa features the Corn Maiden (Kachin Mana) holding a bowl of bean sprouts in one hand and a cattail in the other, symbolizing fertility, growth, and agricultural abundance. She stands atop a frog, a powerful Hopi symbol of water, moisture, and rain, often associated with clouds and lightning. Beneath the frog, a Hopi villager or priest takes shelter inside a dwelling, representing the human connection to the spiritual and natural forces above. Skillfully carved from a single piece of cottonwood root and signed on the base, this sculpture reflects the Hopi worldview of harmony between people, ceremony, and the environment.
