“Lucy Qinnuayuak was a prolific graphic artist, well-known for illustrations of her favourite theme – the bird image, either singularly or in groups and in all sorts of situations or relationships.  She also depicts other themes which spring from her personal interpretation of the Canadian Inuit traditional way of life.  She was born in Salluit in northern Quebec and at a very young age along with her mother and sister, moved to Baffin Island, Northwest Territories, where they lived in Cape Dorset and in several outpost camps.  She met her husband, Tikituk, a sculptor and graphic artist at Supujuak camp where they enjoyed a traditional way of life.  In the early 1960’s they moved to Cape Dorset.

Qinnuayuak started to draw in the 1960’s while living in Supujuak camp.  Her drawings were turned into graphics from 1961 until 1983, excluding 1973.  She also created her own plastic repertoire of forms that clearly defines the aesthetic values in her works.  Over the years she has drawn many kinds of birds in various poses – the features of their eyes and feathers connecting them to each other.  In her compositions movement and stability are often ambiguously juxta-posed.

At the end of the 1970’s Qinnuayuak began working with acrylic paint in conjunctin with other mixed media.  Her compositions from that period are colorful, extremely vibrant and powerful.  They are also much more elaborate and complex with a broader story line.  Qinnuayuak’s art is realistic and humorous and it reflects the traditional Inuit way of life.”

                                                            From “Lucy Qinnuayuak (1915 – 1982)”,1995.
(see reference below)

Lucy’s prints were first published in 1961, and she has contributed to every annual collection but one since that time.  Her work has been featured in solo exhibitions at private galleries and is included in major public institutions.  Her work was last published in the 1982 annual print collection which included twelve of her images.  Lucy continued to draw even thought she was seriously ill.  She died in the fall of 1982.
