CURATOR'S CHOICE
Jaco's large sculptures of Inuk people involved in traditional roles, are unprecedented in Inuit carving today.
There are only a few artists (eg Abraham Anghik Ruben) who can create fantasy, myth, history and tradition from a piece of stone like Jaco Ishulutak.
Jaco's large figures could easily find their way into one of Canada's grand Art Galleries.
I am inspired by the exceptional talent of Jaco Ishulutak which is why Good Vibrations is a CURATOR'S CHOICE.
Masterpiece Sculpture! Museum quality Carving!
Good Vibrations is a magnificent character piece.
This Drum Dancer is memorialized in a nanosecond of time, swaying to the beating drum.
Jaco excels at selecting the elaborate costumes of his figures.
His coats often have ornate coat tails and detailed "embroidery".
Good Vibrations' colour is particularly beautiful.
The dark chocolate is punctuated with patches of orange/pink.
The effect is rich and opulent.
This Jaco figure portrays the pride that drum dancers feel as they perform this essential Inuit tradition of storytelling set to music and dance.
