A very animated Kachina. The Koyemsi or Mud Head is the most popular kachina among the Hopi people because they appear in all of the ceremonies. He usually accompanys most kachinas during the ceremonies, and they come as clowns, announcers of dances, drummers and singers. The Koyemsi is usually the one who play games, like guessing games and balancing acts, with the children in the audience.
Silas Roy was born in Tuba City, Arizona on June 6th, 1948. He is Hopi and is part of the Coyote Clan. His dolls have excellent motion, detail, and proportion. Silas is an experienced carver, he has been caving since the early 1960's. Silas carves his dolls by looking into a piece of cottonwood and then gets a vision of the motion and porportion of the doll (depending on grain of the wood), and then he carvers out the doll as perfect as he can..
