Description: This print is a photograph of a subject matter the Eckmans have considered to be a personal favorite for many years, the Hoop Dancer. Allen created this cast paper sculpture as a commissioned, one-half life-size piece. The hoop dancer is a relatively new Native American Dance category. It was developed, we are told, by a creative native in Taos New Mexico, in the 1950’s. The dance is done with as many hoops as the dancer can dance with, and is judged in accordance with their athletic ability, grace and creativity. Here, the hoop dancer is doing the eagle configuration. The print is produced on archival photo paper using archival inks. It is signed and numbered by the artist.
