Balanced Stones By Vancouver Artists

Inukshuk (singular), meaning "likeness of a person" in Inuktitut (the Inuit language) is a stone figure made by the Inuit. The plural is inuksuit. The Inuit make inuksuit in different forms and for different purposes: to show directions to travellers, to warn of impending danger, to mark a place of respect, or to act as helpers in the hunting of caribou. Similar stone figures were made all over the world in ancient times, but the Arctic is one of the few places where they still stand. An inukshuk can be small or large, a single rock, several rocks balanced on each other, round boulders or flat.

  • @StandUPProductions ....oh dear, awful pun.

  • An artist in Lanzarote has balanced stones all along the coast, but there's no sign of him/her.

    You just find loads of surprising little stacks of rocks in the middle of a field & have to ask locals how they got there.
