Ana Trillo is on page 180 of the Many Faces of Mata Ortiz book. She is one of our featured artists and is very kind. A lot of her personality goes into her work. She is fun, playful, and full of joy and that is apparent in the pottery and designs of her work.
Mata Ortiz pottery is one of the finest ceramics in the world. Inspired by the Paquime (Apache Native Americans) the potters of Mata Ortiz create contemporary works of art, often incorporating Mimbres designs shared by the Native American cultures.
These pots are called ollas, or coiled pots. They are hand painted using natures own canvas and materials, and never kiln fired (open pit firing is the technique used). They are created entirely by hand so there are slight variances in size or symmetry.
The villages of Mata Ortiz are located in the State of Chihuahua, Mexico.
These pieces are for ornamental use only, they are not intended to be used as water, food, or flower containers.
