Note:
“...these sculptures-in-the-round are liberated from the static limitations of a base - a Eurocentric convention that had influenced contemporary Inuit art. Rotated in the hands of the artist while being fashioned, Man Skinning Fox (1956) by Josephie Ningiok Kupirkruluk (1926-) can be viewed in more than one position.”
