Native American Baskets Rain Scott Acoma Style Vessel Oshoochiak Pudlat In spite of their sizeRain Scott, from Acoma Pueblo, makes baskets from folded paper, origami style. While his technique is new and innovative, he pays tribute to the traditions of his people both in form (olla) and in design. The vessel features Acoma florals that were popular in the 1940s and 1950s. The vines stems of the flowers connect to the one next to it and one single leaf protrudes from the side of the flower. The black and white base design is inspired by Tohono
