Tribute To The Bering Sea
Commissioned - Anchorage, Alaska
This set of commissioned Yupik mens dance fans was very exciting to create! My client chose the colors because they reminded him of the ocean and his love of the Bering Sea.
“Given freedom to create, I had this wild idea of painting the sea on the handles! It was both challenging and exhilarating to do so in such a limited area.”
— David Angaiak
