Seal Dance Limited Edition - (3 of 3) This second release in the series brings to life a sacred moment in motion. Featuring bold, dimensional seals—large and small—this artwork pays tribute to the ancestral rhythms of the Seal Dance, a celebration rooted in gratitude and connection.
Among the Yup’ik, every animal is a messenger to Ellam Yua, the Person of the Universe. After the final harvests are safely stored, communities gather to give thanks through dance, honoring the gifts of the land and sea. Villages prepare offerings: carved utensils, hunting gear, fish traps, Qayaqs, dried fish and meat, seal oil, and more—each item a symbol of care and reciprocity.
