First generation artists such as Napachie Pootoogook and Mayoreak Ashoona helped establish the foundation that later artists, such as Shuvinai Ashoona and Ningiukulu Teevee, have been able to build upon in the early 2000’s. It was around this time that a shift started to happen where drawings were being appreciated and promoted beyond simply being the templates for the internationally recognized annual print collection.
