Item Details
Description
Baker Lake, Woman with Wolf- or Dog-Child, ca. mid-late 1980s, black stone, signed in syllabics, 8.25 x 4.75 x 4.75 in, 20.4 x 12.1 x 12.1 cm. ... In some versions of the sea goddess myth, the young woman mates with a dog and gives birth to both human and dog-children. Thomas Sivuraq may have had this story in mind. Sivuraq has shown consistent interest in this type of animal-human imagery over his career. For other examples, see Walker’s May 2014, Lot 142 (Bird-Woman Nursing her Child), and Walker’s Nov. 2012, Lot 83 (Bear-Shaman).--- CATEGORIES: Inuit, Eskimo
