Merton Sisneros, alongside his wife Linda, is a contemporary Santa Clara Pueblo potter recognized for their black-on-black pottery, a style perfected in the 20th century by potters like Maria Martinez. This technique involves a polished black surface with matte black designs, achieved through reduction firing where oxygen is limited during the firing process, creating a distinctive blackened finish.
