inukshuk




This inukshut stands guard on the road to St. Martin's. Others stand along the main highway to Saint John. This one is spectacular. This art form has practical use in the Arctic, but now it has caught on around the world. We have sat at the beach building little inukshuk - a great source of pleasure and it takes some skill. Here is a class in the Netherlands playing with the form:
And here I am standing by the road near the inukshuk.

I have to do research on what it is and what it is used for. Interesting!
