Looking at the blown hair under the chin of the musk ox, one can almost feel the sub-zero Arctic wind blowing fiercely against the beast as it rears to make a charge.
There is a strong sense of motion in the work.
The beauty of the stone and the superb quality of the workmanship are revealed in the intricately carved hair, face and hooves and in the gleaming high polish finish
Nokalak's musk ox would be an impressive and valuable Central Arctic addition to any serious Inuit Art collection
