This unusual and whimsical carving of a Mother with her two children is filled with energy and delight. There is an abundance of detail, from the baby cradled in her arms, to the amauti that carries the child on her back, who pulls teasingly upon her long braids of hair. Mothers were often required to take their children with them while they performed their daily tasks, and this piece celebrates the traditions and lifestyle of the Inuit people.
