Inuit Art Birds - Silver Owl
On southwestern Baffin Island in the Canadian Arctic Territory of Nunavut, the artists of Cape Dorset have been pulling prints for nearly 45 years. The Inuit are determined to retain important elements of their culture - their language and stories, their connection to the Arctic and its resources - while adapting to modern ways. The images in these postcards are from the oldest continually running print studios in Canada.
