The Polar bear’s next meal is the unsuspecting seal resting by the water’s edge. The handle of the ulu (traditional woman’s knife) is antler carved in the image of a leaping polar bear. The subject evolved in the artist’s mind when the fabrication of a display stand presented a scenario that depicts nature’s cycle of life and death. The sweet seal is carved from bone and rests on a rocky shelf made from a moose antler “palm”. A never to be duplicated masterwork.
