Pottery by Osa<p>“As did his ancestors before him, the 53-year-old shapes the harvested clay into pottery pieces, only his have a distinct sci-fi bent: striking vessels in black and creamy white carry faces of imagined nomads in gas masks, surrounded by geometric designs of traditional Cochiti potters; majestic sculptures immortalize fictionalized warriors in futuristic regalia.”<br><a href="https://craftcouncil.org/articles/the-ceramist-and-the-superheroes/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">craftcouncil.org/articles/the-</span><span class="invisible">ceramist-and-the-superheroes/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pottery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pottery</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ceramics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ceramics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/virgilortiz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>virgilortiz</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>art</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/IndigenousFuturism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IndigenousFuturism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/indigenous" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>indigenous</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nativeamerican" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nativeamerican</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/cochitipueblo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cochitipueblo</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/clay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>clay</span></a></p>

The New York Times · ‘We’ve Already Survived an Apocalypse’: Indigenous Writers Are Changing Sci-FiBy Alexandra Alter

Recent additions to my TBR pile. Never Whistle At Night, Interzone 295, Moccasin Square Gardens (Richard Van Camp), The Supply Chain (Aaron Schneider), The Pump (Sydney Hegele), Augur volume 5 Collected Edition, The Marigold (Andrew F Sullivan), and Truth Telling (Michelle Good). I leave anthologies scattered around the house so I can read a short story whenever I see one. I’m especially partial to horror stories written by Inuit authors. That’s some scary shit. @InterzoneMag @indigenousauthors @augurmag #horror #anthologies #CanLit #Indigedon #IndigenousMastodon #IndigenousFuturism #Bookstodon
