About The Artwork
Oven Bread is a striking black and white lino print by New Mexico artist Brian Taaffe-Cordova, celebrating the rhythm of everyday life in a Pueblo village. Stylized adobe homes rise in the background while traditional outdoor hornos (bread ovens) glow with heat, evoking the smell of fresh bread and the warmth of community.
Carved and hand-pulled in the classic linocut printmaking tradition, each impression reveals bold graphic lines and rich texture. The high contrast of ink and paper turns adobe walls, smoke, water, and light into a powerful visual story about Southwest culture, community gathering, and the continuity of Indigenous foodways.
