SPECTACULAR COLOUR PALETTE!
HEAT 2 is an Qulliq.
This is an Inuit lamp/stove which burns seal oil for fuel.
The stone is carved to form a rounded shape, with a depression at the top to hold the fseal oil fuel.
A Qullik was traditionally a source of light and heat for Inuit people.
Killiktee has chosen an exquisite colour palette for his Qulliq.
Function and Art combine.
Inside the igloo, the Inuit would use this oil stove for cooking and for warmth.
Heat 2 will be a conversation piece in your collection!
