Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox artist
Faye Tso (1933–2004) was a Navajo potter and herbal medicine healer.[1] Her pieces are known for their nontraditional imagery of corn maidens, warriors, and dancers, whereas Navajo pottery typically has little decoration.[2] Born in Coal Mine Mesa, Arizona, Tso was relocated with other Navajos to Tuba City, Arizona in 1974 because of a land dispute between the Navajo and Hopi tribes.[3] She returned to dig her clay at Coal Mine Mesa, where she also gathered pinon from which she extracted the pitch resin used to coat and seal her Dineh pottery.[1] In 1990, the Arizona Indian Living Treasures Association designated Tso as a living treasure.[4][5] Her husband and son are medicine men and use Tso's pots in their ceremonies.[2][6]
