This is an example of an Inuit sculpture by Paul Akkuardjuk. It is made of antler, ivory, stone, hide, thread and black colouring. It shows a winter camp, a polar bear, dog sled, caribou, muskox and people in an igloo. This was important to the Inuit because they hunt the animals for lots of things like meat, parkas, and bones for tools.
This is my soap stone sculpture. I made it by carving it with a file and polishing it with sand paper. I used the oil from my skin to shine it and I put a string through the hole. It shows a wolf's spirit. I made it because the wolf hunts the lemmings and the caribou in the Arctic.
