Masterpiece Sculpture! Magnificent Vintage Carving!
Barnabus Arnasungaaq was one of the earliest participants in the Baker Lake carving program established by the Canadian government in the 1960's.
The Future is Here tugs at the heart strings.
A loving mother and her small child, strapped together in love and as a practical method of carrying out daily family tasks.
Lovingly carved with stunning black basalite stone.
The perfect finish reflects the sun and highights the magnificent ronded lines of this sweet yet sophisticated homage to Motherhood.
Barnabus is a pioneer in the 1st generation of Inuit carvers and is also one of the most highly decorated artists.
Of course, the Mother and Child theme has been cherished throughout the ages so don't be surprised if you are immediately bonded to this sweet carving.
