Item Details

Description

NICK SIKKUARK (1943-2013) KUGAARUK (PELLY BAY) / UQSUQTUUQ (GJOA HAVEN)
Fish Shaman, 1990s
antler, bone, muskox horn, fur, and waxed string, 3 x 5.75 x 1.25 in (7.6 x 14.6 x 3.2 cm)
signed, "ᓂᑯᓚ ᓯᑯᐊ".

Provenance
Private Collection, USA;
Private Collection, Toronto.

In contrast to the artist’s elegant Preening Crane (Lot 71), Sikkuark’s Fish Shaman is a delightfully macabre work. Having already revealed his penchant for bizarre imagery in his 1970s drawings, Sikkuark clearly felt a kinship with the Kitikmeot style of surrealist assemblages, so after his move to Kugaaruk he invented his own personal take on the style. In both his larger whale bone constructions and his small-scale antler pieces, Sikkuark combined his love of realistic detail, his mordant wit, his taste for organic materials of all types, and his fertile imagination to create works that are bizarre, grotesque, creepy, hilarious, and brilliant. Fish Shaman is a splendid example of his small-scale inventions; one of our favourites, it is comically impish and slightly malevolent.
