About The Artwork

In Zuni belief and storytelling, animals such as ravens and deer are not just creatures of the land—they are messengers, protectors, and spiritual companions. Here, Gchachu positions them as sacred witnesses to the journey of the human spirit, standing watch in a landscape that is both earthly and ethereal.

Painted in bold acrylics with a rich interplay of warm and cool tones, Sacred Companions reflects the artist’s deep connection to land, language, and ceremonial life. The composition invites viewers to reflect on the unseen forces that walk beside us and the wisdom offered by those who do not speak in human words.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

ANTHONY GCHACHU

An evolving Native American artist in the 21st century from Zuni Pueblo in New Mexico, Anthony Gchachu is inspired by nature, architecture and the “movement” of the world. His message to the world reflects the stories of perseverance and the journey of life.

Gchachu’s latest series, "Land of The Shalako" portrays images of deer, birds, and wildlife, signifying and honoring loved ones who were lost throughout the pandemic. The playful yet powerful scenes are depicted by using beautiful vibrant colors of red, yellow and blue brush strokes. 

Capturing breathtaking views of distant mountains and forest tree lines are inspired by endless drives through forest in New Mexico. Each painting expresses emotions of joy, happiness and a vision for hope. Gchachu’s passion for painting provides a beauty in the world like no other.
