Artist | Audla Pee |
Nation | Cape Dorset |
Description | Cape Dorset (1920 – 1998) Audla Pee was born in 1920 and grew up in Cape Dorset. He was married to the late Nurlupik Pee, a sculptor and craftswoman. His children and grandchild were influenced by their work and also took up carving. “Audla is known for his carvings of bears in the green stone. Unlike many [Inuit] carvers that portray bears as they actually are, [Audla] gives them a spiritual quality. They seem to possess a superhuman power or intelligence. [Audla’s] works are in numerous collections throughout Canada” – from Sculpture/Inuite, 1971 |
Coiled lime grass, Thread (coloured), Serpentine stone
The process of basket-making is long and arduous as it can take up to a month to weave a large basket. Baskets are made from repeatedly coiling the grass from the bottom of the basket and building the basket up. Designs are created by stitching thread onto the basket, however some designs are actually woven in. This thread can be made from a number of materials, such as de-haired sealskin, leather, and yarn.
