Dilbert Gasper: Pipestone, Turtle W/Sgraffito

Dilbert Gasper: Pipestone, Turtle W/Sgraffito

Gas-per

The choice of pipestone for the material adds to the significance of the piece, as it holds deep cultural and spiritual meaning for many Native American tribes. The vibrant turquoise eyes seem to gaze into the soul of anyone who beholds it, drawing them into a realm of contemplation and reflection. Each dot delicately placed on its back tells a story, perhaps representing the passage of time or the interconnectedness of all living beings. This turtle is not merely an object; it is a symbol of resilience, patience, and harmony with nature—a powerful reminder of our place in the universe.

Turtle (Edo:wa): Turtle has always been esteemed because it carries its home on its back and goes with the flow of the river, not against it. In some mythologies, the first North Americans envisioned the continent as a turtle because it was surrounded by water. Turtle reminds us to respect Mother Earth.
