Marie Strock Navajo Critque on Deanna Lardieri

Deanna's piece was a bit larger than 24x36 and was constructed of acrylic paint on cloth along with miscellaneous items like a dream catcher that she had made, yarn, a navao proverb all into the form of a traditional blanket. Hanging by a decorative string she had also made herself.

The patterns on her piece were represented into a quadrant and they followed the culture extremely well and displayed the cultural diversity of the Navajo. All of the symbols had incorporated something that everyone could relate to, like food and beliefs, etc. Overall, the project fit the assignment perfectly and was probably the most informative piece, in my opinion.
