What is the first thing that happens when you see that perfect Inuit carving?
Do you take a sharp breath in or does your jaw drop?
BANG THE BONG provokes a visceral response.
He exudes joy, excitement and a sense of honour.
A Drum Dancer is a role that is taken very seriously by the Inuit community.
They are not only the keepers of the history of their particular Inuit community but they also dance and drum in order to COMMUNICATE the message they hold.
Do you see Bang The Bong's devotion?
Billy carves the most spectacular modern Inuit art pieces!
The Inuit carvers often say that the medium (stone, bone) tells them what to carve.
I'd say Billy Merkosak was listening!
