As Pitt worked with indigenous images, she also began to search for a way to present her own tribal
experiences, and began to make masks representing Spilyay (Coyote), Stick
Indians, and other characters in the stories she grew up with at Warm Springs.
Pitt is clearly one of the great innovators within her own tribal
tradition... She has chosen to work in clay using Asian techniques like raku and anagama, to work in bronze or precious metals, to incorporate wood, copper, glass, shell, leather, feathers, and a wide variety of materials, and to mix media and technologies
worldwide. |
