Original Drawing - Winter Season

"We don't get much ice anymore" is written next to the title on the back of this drawing. A stretched landscape, a commentary on our changing climate, this drawing holds more than ice and snow.

ᓂᑯᑦᑕᐃ ᓵᒻᒪᔫᐊᓕ Nicotye Samayualie (1983 -   )

Nicotye is fascinated by patterns and arrangements of disparate objects in nature and man-made materials. Many of her drawings depict everyday items such as the contents of a pantry shelf, a table of shiny fishing lures or boxes of camping supplies. Nicotye has had her original drawings shown at the Toronto Art Fair and in 2013 her work was featured in an Italian publication, ‘Annie e le Altre’, an ambitious scholastic study that explored the role of women artists in Kinngait (Cape Dorset).
