Description


Untitled (Cleaning Bearskin) by Shuvinai Ashoona – Inuit Art from Cape Dorset 2022 original hand drawing collection presented by DaVic Gallery of Native Canadian Arts.


Condition:          No condition noted.  It is common that original drawings will show minor handling marks and probably stains caused by the artist themselves.  It is also common to see, particularly with Shuvinai’s drawings, uneven paper trimming.


Description by Artist:     No description by artist found.


Notes from DaVic Gallery:    Two women share a focused and quiet moment cleaning the skin of a polar bear. It’s lovely to see how both women stick their tongue out in concentration.

The blank sheet of letter-size (8.5” x 11”) paper covering part of the image in the last picture is for size reference.
