Navajo Silversmith Alex Beeshligaii (Navajo Dineh/Apache) has worked as a traditional silversmith for more than 30 years, making jewelry using tufa and sand molds. He learned the artform from family and community members and he sings to the artwork that he makes, as he was taught by his late mother. He works with his son, Shane Beeshligaii, to pass on the tradition and philosophy of the artform as well as the Navajo Dineh language and history. 💍 | Arizona Illustrated
