Masterpiece Carving! Museum quality Sculpture!

Courageous Heart is the first Nasogaluak Dancing bear we have had in the Gallery.

Untamed, fierce, and powerful.

Courageous embodies all the elements of the Canadian Far North!

But he is also courageous, unruffled and the guardian of his family.

Courageous's posture personifies the gallantry of The Bear!

Raised fist and snarling mouth, this Bear has NO FEAR!

He may even be taunting his unseen foes to step forward and challenge him.

But in the middle of all this bravado, Heart is a bear whose colour is a pastel turquoise kissed with patches of creamsicle orange.

This colour of stone is rare and champions the spirit of this incredible carving.
