Masterpiece Sculpture! Museum quality Carving!
Why are carvings of daily Inuit Life so popular?
The most basic human psychological need is for CONNECTION to another being.
These brief glimpses into another life, or another culture expands our notion of where we fit into the world.
And when we see another way of life that is so alien to our own, we discover that we all share basic needs like food, shelter and clothing.
Whether we shop online or kayak on the Arctic Ocean, we all require these things to live.
NEW MUKLUKS FOR MAMA is a beautifully carved and designed depiction of an Inuk Hunter with his Kayak and his catch.
You will find yourself searching this piece for every single detail and being so excited when you discover all the "components"!
