Lillian Pitt : ウィキペディア英語版 | Lillian Pitt
Lillian Pitt (born 1944) is a Native American artist from the Columbia River region of the Pacific Northwest. Her Native American name is Wak’amu (camas root), chosen because it represents a "stubborn plant that won’t let go of the earth", referring to the long periods of time she spent wandering the hills during her childhood. Pitt is primarily known for her sculpting and mixed media artistry, which focuses on 12,000 years of Native American history and tradition of the Columbia River region. ==Early life and education== Pitt was born and grew up on the Warm Springs Reservation in 1944 and later moved to Portland, Oregon in the early 1960s after graduating from Madras High School. Due to a back issue, she decided to take art classes at Mount Hood Community College and practice designing ceramic masks in 1981. Some of her early influences included the sculptor and painter R.C. Gorman of the Navajo tribe and Japanese mask making and ceramic traditions such as Raku and Anagama.〔
