Notes from DaVic Gallery:   In the very beginning of time, the Inuit people say, Raven made the world. Raven was both a god and a bird with a man inside. After Raven created everything, he decided to remain on the earth. He loved the people and the animals and he was curious about them all. Even though he had made the world, he did not know everything there was to know… fabulous story and here Ning shows us that it was a woman that inside raven … nice twist … it brings back the discussion, is God a woman?
