This online auction is to raise funds from the sale of the hand-carved bowl with handle by acclaimed Ume Sami artist Rivojen Jørn Magnus Langseth for Masse Moro. The artist works to preserve the Ume Sami culture including the language, art, food, and traditions which are offered to visitors in cultural immersion presentations during the summer and ongoing efforts to acknowledge the language and teach it in Norway. Langseth’s art has been shown throughout Scandinavia and Europe and some other parts of the world. His pieces range from small bowls to large outdoor installations to pieces for churches.
To give bidders opportunities to bid on or purchase other Norwegian handicrafts, we have added additional items to the auction. The sales from these items will go back to the artist and are not a part of the Masse Moro fundraiser. Only the sale of the Langseth bowl will go towards Masse Moro. For more information, contact SN District 5 Foundation Director, Scott Wegner, at Srweg61@gmail.com or 608-209-7753.
