I have extremely fond memories of the Indiana Jones films, especially
Raiders of the Lost Ark, from when I was a kid… heck, I'm fairly certain that's the first film my parent's bought on VHS. But that's nothing compared to artist
Tessa Morrison's tale of that same Horrison Ford vehicle: "Indiana Jones and the
Raiders of the Ark was the movie my mom and dad went to see on their first date. I'm pretty sure I owe that movie and Harrison Ford for my very existence." But obviously that film also impacted Morrison's life, for when she was asked to customize the 4-inch tall Sametan figure, designed Koji "
Cometdebris" Harmon, she created "Findiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Shark!" This gorgeous looking, costumed custom creation will be part of the "Aloha, Sametan!" group exhibition at
Pow! Wow! Hawaii 2014. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this one-of-a-kind piece will benefit
PangeaSeed in the fight against shark fin soup.
