Artist's Description
Figures made of stone called inuksuit (singular inuksuk, also spelled inukshuk) are among the most important objects created by the INUIT, who were the first people to inhabit portions of Alaska, Arctic Canada and Greenland. The term inuksuk (in Inuktitut) means "to act in the capacity of a human."
Inuksuit are placed on the temporal landscape acting as "helpers" to the Inuit. Among their many practical functions, they are used as hunting and navigational aids, act as coordination points, serve as various indicators (eg, where food was cached), and act as message centers. In addition to their earthly functions, certain inuksuk-like figures have spiritual connotations, and are objects of veneration, often marking the threshold of the spiritual landscape of the Inummariit - the Inuit who know how to survive on the land living in their traditional way.
