Summary:
Nunatsiavut, the
Inuit
region of Canada that achieved self-government in 2005, produces
art
that is distinct within the world of Canadian and circumpolar
Inuit
art
. This most southerly population of
Inuit
, the coastal people of Nunatsiavut have always lived both above and below the tree line, and
Inuit
artists and craftspeople from Nunatsiavut have had access to a diverse range of Arctic and Subarctic flora and fauna, from which they have produced a stunningly diverse range of work. Artists from the territory have traditionally used stone and woods for carving; fur, hide, and sealskin for wearable
art
; and saltwater seagrass for basketry, as well as wool, metal, cloth, beads, and paper. In recent decades, they have produced work in a variety of contemporary
art
media, including painting, drawing, printmaking, photography, video, and ceramics, while also working with traditional materials in new and unexpected ways. Designed to accompany a major touring exhibition organized by The Rooms Provincial
Art
Gallery of St. John's, the book features more than 80 reproductions of work by 45 different artists, profiles of the featured artists, and a major essay on the
art
of Nunatsiavut by Heather Igloliorte.
