Ningiukulu Teevee in conversation
Join Inuit artist and writer Ningiukulu Teevee for a conversation about her work and the exhibition Ningiukulu Teevee: Chronicles for the Curious with Taqralik Partridge, Associate Curator, Indigenous Art.
Ningiukulu Teevee (1963−) is a Kinngait (Cape Dorset), NU-based graphic artist who has been contributing to the Cape Dorset annual print collection since 2004. Teevee’s playful style, that frequently depicts owls, walruses and seabirds (often wearing kamiit, rubber boots, or parkas), has become popular among collectors. Just two years following her debut in the collection, her inaugural solo exhibition, Ningiukulu Teevee: Drawings, was hosted at Feheley Fine Arts in Toronto in 2006. Her children’s book, Alego, was published in 2009, featuring her illustrations and text in English and Inuktitut.
