About the Item

Majio’s decade in Japanese culture sensitized her to animistic belief that everything has a beingness which augmented her yearly retreats to New Mexico where the animal life and weather are very much animated in the minds of the population. It is ambiguous, who is becoming whom in this image. Somatic sensations of transformation are available for those who are aware. Even in modern day Japan there is an attentiveness for the possibility of a fox’s tail peeking out from the edge of a kimono. Acrylic paint on small canvas depicts the individual presence of animals, strongly influenced by the enchanted land of New Mexico. Animal iconography is woven deeply throughout three diverse cultures-native, Anglo and Spanish. Majio has for many decades made yearly painting trips and extended retreats to the triangle between Sante Fe, Taos and Abiquiu. Her animal depictions not only reflect stories but are also enhanced by how people there embody the land and wildlife. Her intimate connection to the cultural traditions of the Pueblo Indians, descents from 15th century Spanish and Anglos who offer a rich diversity, if not an uneasy community relationship. The sensitivity to animal and their stories is contagious, even to the many visitors.
