Inuit art
Small soapstone sculpture of a dancing polar bear made by an artist who belongs to one of the indigenous peoples of the far north.
Seen in NONAM, the North American Native Museum in Zürich, Switzerland. A very interesting, small museum that was not very easy to find. Here is the web site. If you want to visit, take the tram to Tiefenbrunnen und walk from there.
These peoples and their culture are not very well known, for reasons that I fail to understand. They have a rich and interesting history and culture that we can learn a lot from.
I went there to see the special exhibition on the Inuit ocean goddess Sedna, eponymous for the transneptunian object 90377 Sedna.
Camera: Leicaflex SL2 (Leica ID 10022), made in 1975
Lens: Leica Summicron-R-II 50mm (11216), made in 1978
Kodak Portra 400 professional grade colour negative film
