Works by Shuvinai Ashoona and Qavavau Manumie are included in The Drawing Room, a new national juried showcase of contemporary art that is being sponsored by DRAWN, Metro Vancouver’s annual festival of drawing. Both Cape Dorset artists submitted work to the competition, which was juried by a respected panel of experts from across Canada.
The panel selected Ashoona’s Untitled (dwellings) and Manumie’s Untitled (Cape Dorset) for inclusion in the exhibition, which runs July 17 through August 7 at the Pendulum Gallery in downtown Vancouver. A catalogue of the exhibition has been published.
