Masterpiece Carving! Museum quality Sculpture!
As you stand in awe at the energy Idris has coaxed from this piece, you would swear that Everybody Was Kung Fu Fighting is alternating his arms and legs as he dances to the beat of an unheard tune!
I love carvings that challenge our minds, insisting that the carving actually moves!
Pieces that play with "reality" are rare.
Wouldn't it be a credit to the artist's talent to put at least one of these stunning pieces into your collection?
The ivory hands and face of our Inuk allow Idris to carve in a more realistic fashion.
And our Inuk is an older man, reminding us that it isn't only the young who love to dance and move their bodies through space.
Everybody was Kung Fu Fighting is a happy and inspiring carving.
It is more common to see Inuks dancing who are Drum dancing so this piece is extra special.
