Pudlo Pudlat — Inuit Artist
Found these at stoppingoffplace. These paintings were done by a Native Inuit artist named Pudlo Pudlat. Some of it is folk-like and tribal as you would expect, but a lot of his work shows the mingling of his culture with an increasingly technological one. Pictures of elaborate, trippy-looking planes and helicopters everywhere. And I love the one with the giant walrus surfacing near a row of houses strung to power lines. He's an Eskimo — cool!
