This representation of Sedna by Kenojuak Pudlat from Kimmirut shows Sedna in a reflexive mood, maybe reflecting about all her creatures in the ocean and their future. Maybe contemplating what people are doing to her childrens’ playgrounds. A very thoughtful carving.

He had a solo exhibition at The Guild Shop in Toronto in 1981. His stone sculptures are very spiritual, alluding to the shaman and to the family.
He lived in Cape Dorset for much of his life but moved to Kimmirut closer to his source of good carving stone. He was to become an MLA in Nunavut legislature there. Now retired (2014), he no longer carves.
