Marion Scott Gallery is pleased to present Rock Piece: Asinnajaq and the Collection of David Allison.

Opening October 16, the exhibition will feature a video work by multi-media Inuk artist asinnajaq shown alongside several Inuit stone sculptures from the collection of David Allison. Produced in 2015 and first featured in the travelling exhibition Among All These Tundras, asinnajaq's mesmerizing video delves into the mysteries of her people's deep connection with the land. Similarly, the stone and bone sculptures from the Allison Collection, many of them representing human figures, reflect the same elemental connection between the Inuit and their land, here represented by the materials themselves.
