Lot 62
ULAYU PINGWARTOK ᐅᓚᔪ (1904-1978)

Provenance:
Estate of W.A. Ross MacFadden, Toronto, ON
Note:
In this cut-away cross section of a mother’s dwelling, we see her tending her qulliq (lamp), surrounded by utilitarian tools and her nestled sleeping children. The low light of her igloo home is implied by the bluish tone of her surroundings set against the off-white and amber hues of the straw embedded Japanese tatami paper onto which the image is printed.
