Item Details
Description
4" long on base. 4 3/4" tall including base. HARVEY RATTEY – is a Native American enrolled tribal member of the Little Shell Band of the Chippewa. He and his three sisters and a brother were raised on a cattle ranch bordering the Assiniboine reservation near Harlem, MT. During the past 35 years, his love of the cowboy and of wildlife has inspired him to sculpt both subjects with "wild and wooly" action and empathy. However, his greatest interest lies in portraying the Indian people he has known and their way of life spanning the time of the last nomadic Indians to contemporary Indian people in the mainstream of modern society. Harvey has chosen to portray his ancestors and the people he knows in a representational art form foregoing the growing trend toward abstraction. Harvey has chosen to portray his ancestors and the people he knows in a representational art form foregoing the growing trend toward abstraction. "The images of my people," he says with conviction "are clear and realistic mental scenes. I feel it’s important to depict these images authentically in my work. My sculptures capture the essence of moments from history for viewers to enjoy and ponder." He resides in Glendive, MT with his wife Pamela Harr, also a sculptor, and their 6 children.
