Madrona Gallery is pleased to announce the first-ever major solo exhibition of works from Kudluajuk Ashoona.
Coming from a family of well-known artists, Kudluajuk Ashoona only began to seriously pursue art in 2011, taking inspiration from her daughter, Nicotye Samayualie. Focusing largely on scenes depicting contemporary family life, her works are very narrative and literal. Family outings, domestic gatherings, and leisure activities are some of her favourite subjects to depict. The drawings that Kudluajuk creates provide an intimate snapshot of her life, family, and community.
