CURATOR'S CHOICE
In the more remote Arctic communities, carvers were encouraged to sculpt small ivory pieces that would be more economical to ship because of their light weight and higher volumes.
I love the detail of the polar bears who seem perplexed by the distance between their prey and themselves. For those reasons, I had to make A Leap of Faith a CURATOR'S CHOICE.
