View more work by Virgil Soonagrook

Carved from a piece of fossil walrus ivory, this relief piece is made up of the three primary sea mammals that are depended on for sustenance: seal, walrus and whale. One end has a carved human face. The base is carved from baleen with two support rods for this heavy piece of ivory.
