Lauren Honyouti, Hopi Pueblo Carver

"Lauren Honyouti, also known as Loren, started carving full time in the early 1980s after returning from the Phoenix area, where he had lived since high school, working for a local utility company. He had come home for vacations and ceremonies and would carve with his youngest brother Ronald, watching and learning. Finally, after encouragement from family members and others, he decided to move back home. Lauren is also now involved with family and community ceremonial activities." [Schaaf, 2008:130]

When an active carver, Lauren Honyouti has won awards at the Heard Museum, Museum of Northern Arizona, and Inter-tribal Indian Ceremonial. His work is exhibited at numerous galleries in Arizona and New Mexico.
