Masterpiece Sculpture! Museum quality Carving!
A Mother's Joy summons feelings of love and protection.
The Mother and Child image has been a strong symbol of maternity and creativity throughout the history of art.
This carving is serene.
Canada’s TD bank (Toronto Dominion) proudly acquired several of Qimirpik's sculptures for their permanent collection in 2010.
Pits is an artist who is revered for his willingness to take risks in his art and to be innovative.
He has a global reputation as a trailblazer and has forever changed the modern Inuit art scene.
His themed pieces, like this mother and child, are in high demand because of his appealing style of carving.
