George Arlook - Standing Figure
Year completed: 1970s
Medium: Basalt
Size (inches): 7 x 3 x 3 Size (cm): 17.5 x 7.5 x 7.5
Status: Available for Purchase
Observations: Freeform use of material. The figure seems to grow naturally from the stone's shape, with minimal intervention on the part of the artist, which results in a twisting and moving figure. This is the kind of small, shamanic item that could be easily carried as the Inuit moved from camp to camp.
