Gloria Mahle

Hopi

Gloria Mahle is a Hopi-Tewa potter. She's been active since about 1980. Her teachers and mentors were Eunice Navasie and Rainy Naha. Most of her designs seem to come from pot sherds she's found on the ground in the vicinity of the ruin of Sikyátki and from ancient rock art she has found while hiking through the canyons of Hopi.
