The Narwhal Art Gallery features a sculpture that uncovers why the Narwhal has a horn in the first place.
Combining both whale and mythical unicorn into one, it is a modern and delightful piece that brings back memories for when you were an innocent child who still wholeheartedly believed that all mythical creatures were real. The medium sized whale gets a magical upgrade with this whimsical and imaginative sculpture. The exterio is in the shape of a whale is made out of clear glass so that you can peer inside and see the magical and colorful unicorn sculpture inside. Though, of course, the narwhal did not actually get its horn from a unicorn, it's still fun to pretend that unicorns are real.
The sculpture is a piece being featured in the Kozyndan's gallery show beginning November 16th in Toronto and is displayed alongside four other resin-based sculptures.
