Kenojuak Ashevak was a matriarch of modern Inuit art. Raised on the land in an isolated Arctic community, she went on to break artistic gender barriers, set sales records, and lead her people through profound social change. Today, Kenojuak's legacy is so synonymous with the art community she helped establish that the first and only cultural center in Cape Dorset, Nunavut,bears her name.Kenojuak became known as a bird artist-the bird artist of Cape Dorset-and created complex, rich images with intertwining, overlapping, and flowing forms. She was innovative, with an intuitive sense of composition and an instinct for depicting the interconnectedness of all living things. "Themes of light and darkness are represented by the sun and the moon, the owl and the raven, and, as her work matured, a serene woman's face at the center of it all," writes author Leslie Boyd. Kenojuak lived a life of resilience through personal tragedy, and she created beauty and joy through her prolific art.Kenojuak Ashevak: Life and Legacy is the companion to the traveling exhibition of the same name, presenting dozens of Kenojuak's prints side by side with their original drawings. In English, French, and Inuktitut, a foreword by Kenojuak's daughter Silaqi Ashevak introduces readers to life with her famous mother, and an essay by Boyd provides a full, touching history of this pioneering artist of the Far North.
