Pitseolak Qimirpik brings a fresh and fantastical style to his drawings. They bring influences from his well established career as a carver mixed with pop culture, such as cartoons and video games.
Working in this medium allows the artist to expand the scope of his work from individual objects to full narratives. Drawing brings opportunity to express more diverse subject matter and weaves together themes in a way stone does not allow. This will be his first solo-exhibition of drawings in western Canada.
Madrona Gallery respectfully acknowledges the Lekwungen peoples, on whose traditional lands the gallery stands.
