| The jewlery of Denise and Samual Wallace
Woman In The Moon Pin/Pendant
1987
Fossil ivory, sterling silver
Every piece of Denise Wallace's jewelry tells a story - or in some cases, a folk tale - about the rich cultures of the people of Alaska. The elaborate artworks Wallace creates with her husband Samuel call on the ancient images and stories of her own Chugach Aleut heritage and that of other indigenous people, as well as more contemporary figures and models from the natural world. |
