Canadian Inuit Soapstone Figure of a Woman Making a Kamik by Lydia Anautak Qumak

Canadian Inuit Soapstone Figure of a Woman Making a Kamik by Lydia Anautak Qumak

Located in Nottingham, GB

A beautifully hand-carved Canadian Inuit stone sculpture by renowned Nunavik artist Lydia Anautak Qumak, depicting a seated woman carefully making a traditional kamik—the waterproof skin boot that has been an essential part of Inuit life for generations. The composition captures a quiet domestic moment with warmth and authenticity, celebrating the craftsmanship, resilience, and cultural traditions of Inuit communities. Qumak's confident carving emphasises expressive form and subtle detail, giving the figure both character and a strong sense of movement while retaining the simplicity that defines classic Inuit sculpture. Executed in finely polished stone with attractive natural colour variations and texture, the sculpture is signed "Lydia" to the underside. It is an excellent example of late 20th-century Inuit art, combining cultural significance with timeless sculptural appeal. A highly collectible work that would make a wonderful addition to a collection of Canadian Inuit art...
