Untitled (Animal)

"Also by Martha Hastings is a carved erect animal whose paws are projected forward and whose legs are gathered up in a fashion recalling the great cedar totemic bears of the Amerindians of the Pacific Coast. This comparison may appear extravagant, for the grey stone sculpture in question is of small stature. The traits of the animal, of heavy but dignified bearing, are subtly suggested by the delicate channels in the stone block which serves to delineate the limbs and the features of the head. Furthermore, a few incisions appear at the level of the joints and upon the countenance." (Jacqueline Fry, Ministic Sculpture, Introduction)

No. 1 West Mask

The sculpture is a wearable mask. The tiny holes act as a coarse screen through the wearer of the mask can see in order to navigate his/her surroundings. The sculpture, which ressembles a brimmed, round-topped, hat, is supported on a slender, metal rod which is attached to a square, rotating base. There are four, fan-like blades extending out from the edge of the hat brim. The blades are placed around the brim, equidistant from each other. Underneath each blade and under the hat brim, the artist has attached cut binder twine, the ends of which protrude through slightly. Two of the blades have blacktop highways drawn on them; the other two blades have two trails on them. On the top and upper sides of the hat, are clouds. On the sides of the hat, just above the brim, are trees and a prairie elevator. The artist has punched tiny holes around the elevator. The Fiberglas on top of the brim has been maniuplated to emulate the contours of the ground. Suspended from underneath the top hat, is a Fiberglas “face” on which the artist has drawn a snow fence which resembles a mouth. This is a prairie scene in the dead of winter.

Untitled (Seated Female Nude)

Cast bronze sculpture of a nude female, seated with her knees crossed. Her elbows rest upon her knees and her hands clasp the side and back of her head. Set against the smooth plinth upon which the sculpture rests, the form's surface is textured, speaking to the artist's hand in modeling it. In this manner there are ties to Rodin. The woman's face is formulaic with arched eyebrows, straight nose and stylized hair treatment (band/braid). The modeling is characteristic of the artist's work-sensuous, emphasizing through distortion of size the breasts (globular) and buttocks, with oversized feet and thick legs. (per Helen Delacretaz, Curator of Decorative and Historical Art)

Totem

The artist has made an unusual attempt to frame the ivory totem with a contrasting black base and strips of baleen. A piece of black stone 'caps' the design of the ivory (i.e. hair of the head at top). There is an upward movement of the corkscrew grain of the ivory which takes the eye from the solid muskox 'base', to a small family of man, woman and child. In a humourous touch, the child has to stretch up his arms to help the adults support the next level of two narwhals and two long-necked geese. Above that is a bear which holds in place the pieces of baleen and supports a seal with its prey, a fish carved on its back. The totem is topped by a Janus-like double human head. A blackened whalebone bird base supports the ivory carving.

The rod is inserted into a smooth charcoal grey stone rounded base.

Nuliajuk lies across a base in which texture has been obtained by a series of tiny etched-in white lines which contrast with the blackness of the subject. Unbraided hair flows behind her back. An ivory comb is grasped in her flipper/hand. Face has an evil, almost diabolical expression, with beady inset eyes, flared nostrils and large mouth. She is wearing an amautik, but holds no child within it. The figure's body ends in a fish-tail.

Worm

The upward curve of the dappled back of this slender worm is accented by the "legs" which form a textured ridge along the bottom of the worm's belly. Huge black, insect-like eyes of baleen, and a pointed inserted snout look upward, while at the opposite end of the body, the tail is forked into two pointed sections.

see more...

Man/Bird

This shamanic piece depicts a hunter transforming into a bird of prey. The long, solemn face features haunting baleen eyes. Incised lines on the face, as well as the bird body, give the impression of feathers, as does the finely rendered tail. Its human hands clutch a knife and a harpoon.

see more...

Dancing Bear

The natural shape of the antler accomodates this vibrant, playful piece. The forepaws and heads of the bear are flayed upward, establishing the bear's exhuberance. Contrasting with the flowing lines of the curving upper limbs are the human-like hind quarters, which are firmly set upon a narrow antler base. The bear's head features drilled-in eyes, which have been inserted with baleen, while the mouth has been delicately carved, exposing sharp, tiny teeth. The upper paws have comb-like claws, while the bottom set are crudely club-like. The antler is naturally stained giving the bear a more realistic appearance.

see more...

Man/Whale

This innovative and somewhat humorous piece ingeniously makes use of the natural shape of the caribou antler. Viewed from a frontal position, a human head has been split open to reveal a gaping pair of whale jaws, complete with a set of exquisitely carved teeth. An astonished look is apparent on the human's finely rendered face, perhaps in realization that his forehead has been permanently altered. In profile the whale is more apparent, noticibly smiling, perhaps in amusement of the whole affair. The whale's body arches upward and ends in a cap-like tail. An incised broken line divides the two disparate elements of whale and human. Baleen is used to accent the eyes of both creatures.

see more...

Bear

This slender, elongated bear seems to be jumping upward, head stretching towards an unknown destination. The wonderfully carved ears and paws contrast with the simple drilled holes of the eyes and nostrils. The antler is naturally mottled, giving the bear realistic colouring.

see more...

Human Figure

This simply rendered piece is reminisent of a wooden puppet or of a miniature artist's figure, especially because of its moveable arms. The elongated face features baleen dots for eyes, and has a rather long chin. The compact trunk and arms of the figure seem out of proportion to the long, thin legs, which are bent at the knees. The figure has a rather strange otherworldly look.

see more...

Bird/Seal

This amorphic/shamanic sculpture is composed of smooth, rounded curves which give the creature a flowing, graceful appearance. The bird-like head features a gaping beak and almond shaped eyes. The elevated wing of the bird is transforming into a fin, while the body and tail are reminiscent of a seal's.

see more...

Spirit

This unusual shaped carving illustrates a shamanic theme in which a minimal amount of carving has been done. The majority of the sculpture is framed by a cap-like ridge which retains the natural texture of the bone within. A crudely rendered face has been attempted, with the main focal point being the felt pen accented eyes, the rest of the facial features blend with the shape of the bone. A motif of felt pen dots are evident on the "tail" and "ears" of the creature.

see more...

Woman's Face

This simple carving is done in relief form and features a woman's monumental head supported by a tiny, smooth body. The mask-like facial features are accented by the mesh like tattoos which criss-cross the chin, and the V-shaped atttoos which fan out from her cheeks and forehead.

Three of the firmly set paws have claw-like detailing , while the right front paw is posed in mid-stride.

Battling Shamans

Sculpture consisting of two pieces: a stone base and an anthropomorphic, two-headed figure of whalebone joined to base with a dowel of whalebone. One of the heads of the figure is two-sided. The ‘feet' are tail-like. Base: The base is made from dark soapstone that is polished except for the area at the top where the dowel is inserted. This area is carved and has a rough surface. There is one prominent natural crack in the stone. This crack is not in danger of opening. There are eleven localized small abrasions around the polished area. The stone is clean. Figure: The figure is carved from a solid piece of whalebone. There is circular sectioned whalebone dowel that fits into a hol on the underside of the base. The heads on the figure have eyes made of inserts of black soapstone and bone pupils. The Janus-faced head has pupil of black soapstone and has t three bone teeth in its mouth. All of the attached parts of stone and bone are securely attached. There is nothing loose. The distal end of the dowel that fits into the base was formerly glued and has traces of glue on the end. The distal end has been slightly compressed by insertion into the stone base. There are a few small chunks missing from the end. The bone used in the figures had cracks before carving and these were filled with a mixture of ground stone and glue. This material is flush with the outside of the carving except for a small area with it being extruded from the crack. Conservation Recommendations: This piece should be stored in the main vault as the humidity control in this area is superior to that in the Inuit Vault. The whalebone is subject to further cracking as well as the expansion of the filled cracks. This piece should always be displayed in a humidity controlled case.

Kittigazuit

The sculpture, mounted on a Brazilian soapstone base, is made from an ancient piece of whalebone that was part of the skull of a bowhead whale . At the base of the carving, there are a number of human faces that have no eyes, symbolizing the people who died in the Kittigazuit flu epidemic in 1918. They are roughly carved inthe porous bone to give a sense of history - indicating that this happened a long time ago. There is an open space in the skull, signifying an empty land where people used to live. A woman’s amautik is empty of children, as the land is empty of people. The sculpture has animals clustered around it: loons, seals, ravens, bears. A raven’s head beside the full moon signifies that the animals continued on, unlike the people.

Raven Creation

Man and Woman with Raven. Raven encloses both figures protectively with his wings. Eyes are emphasized with the use of jade. The Man’s eyes are wide in amazement, while the Woman has yet to open her eyes. Raven’s eyes are bright as he observes the new life he is in the process of creating. The forms flow together to create complex though unified images with a strong focal point—in this case the head of Raven. Curvilinear lines and shapes derive from the artist’s study of Bering Sea and North Alaskan art and masks. The circular, revolving composition of the sculpture emphasizes the evolving nature of the story that is literally unfolding. The figures are tightly unified before they emerge into the world as separate entities.
