Diego Romero and other contemporary Native American artists often reference the Pueblo Revolt and the atrocities that led up to it – enslavement, whippings, amputations of limbs, and murders. These abuses caused the pueblos to rebel in what has been called America’s First Revolution.

Although he is best known as a ceramic artist, Diego Romero works in a variety of media, including drawings and prints. Usually, the drawings are studies for his spectacular bowls, the form Romero most often employs to express his ideas. A range of influences have shaped Diego Romero’s graphic style – Mimbres and Greek ceramics and comic book art.
