Modern Inuit carvings.

Representative modern carvings by two outstanding Inuit artists.

The one to the left, entitled Mother and Child, is by Judas Ullulaq of Gjoa Haven and was carved from skeletal whale-bone in 1988.

The stone figure of an Inuk, carved around 2000, is the work of Barnabus Arnasungaaq of Baker Lake.
