Picasso Marble Possum With Joeys by Enrike Leekya

$ 120.00

A gray, brown and black veined Picasso marble mother possum with turquoise inlaid eyes, snout and ears carved by Enrike Leekya with four joeys' clinging to her back. As the surviving baby possums get larger, they hang onto the mother's fur on her back as she moves along - since they have outgrown the pouch. Native American lore about possums depict the creature as a trickster or clown who plays dead to get out of danger. A mother with her babes glorifies in stone the impenetrable bond between the parent and the child.
