SAY AAAHH! is a classic Grotesque style Gjoa Haven carving.
The transformations are particularly enchanting!
Where is the head?
There are two heads? Wait, three heads?
One arm?
IS that an arm?
Think of this unique carving style as a study of Thinking Outside the Box!
Frank Ullulaq produces some of the most intriguing and quirky carvings in Gjoa Haven.
Sometimes you can identify a head and a mouth. But then, where you would expect to see a leg or a paw is suddenly a tail or a projection of some sort.
Did Aliens inhabit Gjoa Haven and That's why this style is unique to that area of the Arctic?
They have a charming magnetism.
Say Aaahh is particularly alluring.
His back is bedazzled with a brilliant array of orange and yellow tones,
He has small sharp teeth in his wide open mouth.
This is unexpected and thought provoking.
If you enjoy being spontaneous and unpredictable, Say Aaahh!
is the carving for you.
