This striking bronze sculpture portrays a Native American shaman, or medicine man, deeply immersed in contemplation as he gazes toward the distant horizon. His posture exudes confidence, with his head held high and a commanding presence. Standing on a stone, he balances his body, with his left leg crossed over the other, while gripping a long spear in his left handa symbol of his prowess in hunting and his connection to the earth. The shamans attire is equally symbolic, as he wears the skin of a bear, representing his immense strength and power. This choice of garment conveys the idea that determination and bravery triumph over fear and weakness. The intricate detailing of the bears and the shamans traditional attire captures the essence of his cultural heritage and the spiritual role he plays within his community. Crafted using the ancient lost-wax casting method, the sculpture boasts a rich brown patina finish that enhances its timeless beauty. Mounted on a black variegated marble base, it bears the signature of the artist Kamiko, ensuring both the craftsmanship and authenticity of this remarkable piece.
