Eskimo Art Ellen Paneok Inupiaq Scrimshaw
Ellen Paneok (1959 to 2008) was an artist, a bush pilot, and an activist. She is reported to have been the first indigenous woman to receive a pilot’s license in Alaska.
Here we have a scene of a hunter with a spear in pursuit of a polar bear. The ivory (walrus tusk) appears to have been part of a utilitarian object that was dug up after being buried in the mud.
