Land, Ice, Cosmos
April 1 – May 13, 2023
Marion Scott Gallery is pleased to present Land, Ice, Cosmos. Opening on Saturday, April 1 and continuing until May 6, the exhibition showcases a diverse array of works by seven Inuit artists, including Tony Anguhalluq, Shuvinai Ashoona, Irene Avaalaaqiaq, Laakkuluk Williamson Bathory and Jamie Griffiths, Elizabeth Nutaraaluk, Pauta Saila, and Lucy Tasseor Tutsweetok. While the featured works span a variety of different mediums, such as video installation, print, drawing, textile, and sculpture, they each seek to express evolving relationships to and engagements–both materially and spiritually–with ancestral Inuit lands, worldviews, and traditions.
