Description

Carving of Sedna Transformation by Paul Toolooktook, ᐸᓪ ᑐᓗᑐ, from Baker Lake / Qamani’tuaq This carving is from the secondary market and still shows the old label.

This six inch tall carving in grey- black stone is a strong example of the art from the Baker Lake community: minimal lines, yet strong in expression. Simple in shape, yet evocative in emotion. The transformation from Sedna to Woman is nicely presented. This may be a small carving, but it is nevertheless a  treasure. This carving of a Sedna Transforming by Paul Toolooktook from Baker Lake has come to us through the secondary market.
