Notes from DaVic Gallery: enigmatic and inviting to the imagination… Typical of Luke Anguhadluq’s works it is easy to submerge into the space and the time indicated in this story: two caribou probably from a herd in migration path stop to graze in the middle of the vast space. Very interesting the use of such vast white space and more interesting the positioning of the main objects, top left quadrant, leaving bottom and right areas blank. In my opinion this further stresses movement in time and space. This might well be a hunter in hiding and can see these caribous far in the distance. So close and yet so far. There is distance to cover before a successful hunt.
The blank sheet of letter-size (8.5” x 11”) paper covering part of the image in the last picture is for size reference.
