6" Winsome Spirit Gjoa Haven Clayton Keknek Inuit Painting

6" Winsome Spirit Gjoa Haven Clayton Keknek Inuit PaintingInuit art: Face Transformation Inuit Artist: Clayton Keknek Size: 6" long, 5" high, 2" deep Community: Gjoa Haven, NU Stone: Stone medium id: c 073 I love these Gjoa Haven transformations. Why? Number 1 Because their style is so unique to Gjoa Haven that you immediately know when you see one, that THIS is a messenger from Gjoa Haven. Number 2 Because these quirky little carvings encourage our inner art lover to come forward. What story does this

Papigatook’s compact creatures  have a contemporary connection to art and design

This is also an investment piece

A really big and impressive Inukshuk

Size: 9" long

A rare breed indeed

Inuit Artist: Joseph Suqslaq

The carving is elevated on a caribou antler stand which gives the illusion of the whale travelling slowly through the ocean

The eyes and hair really make this piece come alive

The lines and curves are also well crafted and beautifully proportioned

I am always so attracted to this colour combination

This walking bear has sophistication and personality
