Lena Boone Gallery:


Lena Boone is one of the most prominent and prolific fetish carvers at Zuni. She is the grand-daughter of the legendary Teddy Weahkee and the daughter of Edna Leki, both of whose talent clearly has been passed on to Lena. She lives in a modest home on the Zuni Pueblo and is very hospitable to visitors. Beyond her extraordinary skills and artistry, Lena brings a huge sense of humanity to everything she does. In addition to her daughter, Evalena, and her son, Leland, both of whom are accomplished and growing carvers, Lena has provided shelter, comfort and guidance to numerous Zuni children. We are privileged to know Lena and to present her work here. (Additional carvings by Lena Boone can be found in other sections of the fetish pages)."
