Provenance
A British Columbia Collection.

This work is a stellar example of Andy Miki’s carving style from the mid 1960s, when he was still living in Whale Cove. The Whale Cove works are known for their degree of naturalism. Miki’s emphasis in those years was still largely on animal form and movement rather than radical abstraction; he gave us more tantalizingly realistic hints, even if we cannot consequently identify a species of animal precisely. This elegant and captivating Reclining Animal is probably either a caribou or seal. Miki’s background was inland Caribou Inuit, but he was living along the coast in Whale Cove, so either guess seems perfectly plausible. Lovely.
