Catalogue Description:
This print depicts some of the complexity of Inuit art as the image appears almost as if it is a two-headed bird. One side of the bird has a green head and orange body and the other side with orange head and green body twinned together but looking as if they are mirrored. Both bird heads have tiny pointed beaks and eyes. Both the green and the orange have little striations in the color as if representing small feathers and their beaks are opposite colors from their heads. The bird (as singular) is not a recognizable species. Condition: good.
