Kachina invites you to travel, in search of the sacred breath that envelops ice and rocks, leaves and twigs, streams and lakes of these immense territories.

Kachina, the spirits of Nature, populate the creation stories of the Hopi Indians. The celebration of Mother Earth is shared by all the first inhabitants of North America. Each object, in its shapes, materials, and colors, speaks of the quest for balance and harmony between nature, spirits, and humans. Upset by the arrival of Europeans in 18th century century, Native American peoples are today trying to restore this vital link for their community.
