Description : | Central image of arial view of kayaker (at angle from t.r.c to b.l.c. image) floating in the sky. Three seals tied to the kayak trail behind. Beneath the kayaker are small figures and a camp scene with two tents (a small figure is visible in the entrance of a tent). Three of the figures are spirits: weasel, hawk, and raven. In the sky there is a yellow daisy-like sun. Colours used are brown, orange, black, blue, yellow, grey. |
Commentaires : | There was a little girl who was very sick. Her parents tried to make her better using Shamans. Her parens told her, "Don't peek out if you hear singing." But the little girl peeked out. When she peeked out, the shaman in the kayak floated up into the sky. The other shamans tried to touch the Shaman's kayak so he could come back down. The shaman with the weasel spirit tried, also the hawk tried but he couldn't. Finally the raven tried and he was successful. (Holman Print Catalogue, 1999-5) |
