She is holding a sphere of Labradorite representing the Aurora Borealis, or Northern Lights. In the Inuit culture they believe their ancestors travel in the Aurora Borealis, so she has grabbed a piece of the Northern Lights and is holding onto her ancestors, looking up in remembrance.

John Maisano is fascinated by the artistic designs found in Celtic, African, Inuit and Tribal art which he incorporates into his sculptures. Each sculpture is inscribed with intricate designs derived from natural forms and structures. His sculptures range in size from treasures that can be held in the palm of one’s hand to larger-than-life monuments. His work focuses on graceful interpretations of animals shaped in a way that captures the life force of each animal and transforms it into something more.
