Koyemsi - Kachina - LGKOYE
NOTES: Koyemsi, Kachina by Christopher Pardell, Legends Kachina Dancers Native American Collection. The Kachina Dancers Collection. In their corporeal manifestations the kachinas bring much needed rain, present gifts, and provide entertainment for Indians. Because of their vast, life-or-death influence over the affairs of men, kachinas are honored in ceremony after ceremony. Masked dancers, the Kachina impersonators, who believe themselves to be the embodiment of these spirits - a belief shared by other members of the tribe - lead the celebrations.
Koyemsi, Probably the most well-known of all Hopi Kachinas, Koyemsi (or Mud-head) usually appears in almost every Hopi ceremony as a myriad of colorful roles, such as a clown, interlocutor, announcer of dances, or drummer.
He is usually the one that plays amusing games with the audience to the accompaniment of rollicking tunes. He then awards his game participants with food or clothing. Continually bringing such fun and frolic to his audience has made Koyemsi one of the most well-liked Hopi Kachinas..

Christopher Pardell bio
Christopher Pardell began sculpting at the tender age of four, and by his teenage years, Pardell had come to the realization that sculpting was to become his life's work. Influenced by the work of renowned sculptors Russell, Remington and Rodin, Pardell wanted to pursue his passion for realism. His formal education was laid aside in favor of an apprentice moldmaker position with a commercial statuary company, and it was there that he received what he considers to be his "real education in art." As an apprentice to the Italian master artisans who ran the statuary, Christopher rapidly learned the skills that would enable him to excel as an artist and earn the stature that has come with his success. Never sketching his designs on paper, Christopher composes all of his work in three dimensions, in a maquette. This unique approach explains the unparalleled beauty and detail that are the trademarks of his work. Christophers exceptional style and special talent have served to impress even the most discriminating collector. Currently, his artwork can be found in public and private collections throughout the world
