Sculpting a mysterious world

Ever since the first European explorers began returning home with stories of the frigid and inhospitable Arctic, western society has been mystified by the ancient culture that has managed to survive in that remote and impenetrable place. The skill of the Inuit, their understanding of the land; their connection to worlds and beings unseen, and their many art forms remain just as captivating today.

The Winnipeg Art Gallery (WAG), Canada's first civic art gallery, was quick to notice the emergence of this exciting new art form and began collecting Inuit sculptures. Today, as the WAG celebrates its centennial, this world-renowned gallery is home to the largest public collection of contemporary Inuit art anywhere with over 11,000 works. Among them are three of Nowkawalk's sculptures, including Owl Shaman holding Goose that he carved in 1962.

This sculpture reveals the mystical connection the Inuit people share with nature andthe spirit world. Inuit shamans have the ability to transform into animals in order to access their wisdom and strengths. In this case, theshaman has shape-shifted into an owl and captured a goose - a powerful image carved from an ancient and enduring culture.

This coin is the eleventh issue of the 1/25 oz in gold series. This collection includes 14 coins who was released between 2004 and 2014.
