DECO214 Indian Harpo Painting

One of a kind piece - Blackfeet handcraft

Farrel Dale Cockrum is a Native American artist from the Blackfeet tribe, originally from Montana. His work draws on the spiritual and warrior traditions of his people, which he reinterprets through a modern and expressive style. Ancestral figures, totem animals, and natural forces intertwine in his paintings, creating a powerful and symbolic universe. Through this fusion of cultural heritage and contemporary creation, Cockrum celebrates Native American identity with strength and emotion.

A powerful face-to-face encounter with a Native American figure, depicted in profile, wearing a traditional headdress with vibrant details. Intense colors, an enigmatic gaze, a strong presence: this work captures the spirit of the great Plains nations.

The headdress, called a warbonnet, is an iconic symbol once worn during ceremonies by the Sioux, Crow, Cheyenne, and Blackfeet tribes. A tribute to the identity, memory, and strength of his tribe's people.
