Description

Aaron Clark Navajo Sandpainting “Yei’s” — Signed, Framed, 14"x14"

Original Navajo sand painting titled “Yei’s” by Aaron Clark, a Navajo artist from Shiprock, New Mexico. This traditional work depicts stylized Yei figures—spiritual beings central to Navajo healing and ceremonial practices—rendered in earth-toned sand with vibrant accents of turquoise and red.

Signed verso “A. Clark,” the piece includes a printed artist biography and cultural explanation affixed to the back. It is presented in a wood frame with custom triple matting in coordinating tones. Notably, the piece is unglazed, enhancing its tactile presence and authenticity.

This artwork reflects a strong cultural narrative and meticulous craftsmanship, making it a desirable addition to Southwestern art collections or decor settings.


Condition

In good condition. The sand surface is stable with no major loss. Some light wear is visible to the frame, and there is faint pencil writing at the bottom right corner of the mat. Overall, it remains an attractive display piece.
