Moses began carving in the early 1950's. 

"In the spring we camp by lakes for good fishing and winter on islands good time for seals. We always moved. We had a special place for each season. I enjoy hunting very much all kinds of animals. To name some, there is fox, seal, caribou, ptarmigan, ducks, geese and fish; so now I have been carving sculptures since I was 20. I have never had a job before, besides I much prefer hunting. Hunting is all I know how to do and carving. I do not care much for modern activities... Years ago we walk in summer when hunting but now we use canoes, in winter we went by dogteam but now we use skidoos. Life has changed." - Moses Echalook, from a letter to Arctic Showcase N.Q. 1982
