Tupilaq

Tupilaq is a creature in Inuit and Greenland folklore and mythology, which is created by mixing physical material from plant, animal and human with the spell and intention from its creator. A Tupilaq can be a protection or a spell and is usually only visible to the shaman, however its spell can be sensed by anybody.

By drawing and observing the Tupilaq I wish to meditate on and investigate the shamanistic bond between animal, nature and human. These Tupilaq has the intention to protect nature from harm.
