Father and Son Mudhead Kachina

“Hopi Father and Son, Family Tradition and Values” Kachina by Award-Winning Hopi Carver Arthur Holmes Jr.

This extraordinary carving, entirely crafted from a single piece of cottonwood root, depicts a touching scene of generational teaching. The elder Mudhead (Koyemsi), representing Arthur Holmes Jr., passes corn seeds and a watermelon to the younger Mudhead (in front), symbolizing Arthur’s son Hunter Holmes, illustrating the transmission of cultural traditions and values from one generation to another.
