Media green stone carving
Size 3.5 x 11 x 4.25 in. / 8.9 x 27.9 x 10.8 cm.
Notes
signed with syllabics on bottom
Reference
according to the consignor, 'Oviloo Tunnillie titled her treatment of this subject 'Female Exploitation'. Here clearly is the male view, which may provoke the same issues of 'the male gaze' and the gender’s sexual objectification as pervades Western art. The sinuousness of her body lines is dramatically undercut by the tension in her face, both from her grimace and the veins in the stone, which suggests the carver’s empathetic not demeaning perspective. The Inuit culture’s openness saves this work from prurience and sexism.'
