Description:

|
Tallirunilik is known for his sculptures showing the umiaq or migration scenes. The umiak, umialak, umiaq, umiac, oomiac, oomiak, ongiuk, or anyak is a type of open skin boat used by both Yupik and Inuit, and was originally found in all coastal areas from Siberia to Greenland. First arising in Thule times, it has traditionally been used in summer to move people and possessions to seasonal hunting grounds and for hunting whales and walrus. The umiak was usually propelled by oars (women) or paddles (men). Today outboard motors are also used. (Source: Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia. org/wiki/Main_Page)
