Pitseolak Ashoona, Spirit of Summer Caribou, 1983, lithograph on mulberry paperPitseolak Ashoona (c. 1904-83) was a prolific Inuit artist based in Cape Dorset, Nunavut. She is recognized as one of the first Inuit artists to create autobiographical work. Her artistic production often included references to traditional Inuit life and contributed to the establishment of a modern Inuit art form that simultaneously transmitted ancestral knowledge and values while achieving international and commercial success. Pitseolak was named a Member of the Royal Academy of the Arts in 1974 and awarded the Order of Canada in 1977 for her outstanding body of work, which includes more than 7000 images.
This print presents a stylized version of a Caribou, a central figure in the Inuit culture. The bright colours and clean delineation of the contours are typical of Pitseolak鈥檚 work.
