When an artist steps outside the creative "box" , the resulting carving can be astounding. Such is ICARUS, Ning's Bird Transformation. Inuit transformations are an important theme; the subject can be an animal transforming into a human or vice versa. Icarus's human head appears to be squawking like an angry bird. His legs are human, positioned in a crouch as if the bird is preparing to leap into the air. Icarus is dramatic and unexpected. A stunning step forward for Ning Ashoona.
