This series represents the daily Nunavut life of fun, sports, and cultural celebration with the northern lights sky from our great north. I tried to show a way that is appealing to everyone by visualizing how beautiful the great north is, so you can see winter into another prospective, beauty and charm.
Life from the north is completely different; they rely on what they know from their ancestors and they work together to achieve a living and they wouldn’t change it for the world. They are content with very little, they take the time to entertain each other, celebrate with a new kill of a seal and they happily feast together. All of the women prepare the food from whatever the men bring home- bears, caribou, whale, fish, and seals. They don’t waste anything; everything from a kill is used for a purpose.
I enjoyed creating this series because it reminded me of our roots- where we are all come from a long time ago, where it all started, and then we move on to a different life to become what it is now.
If you wish to purchase any of my paintings from this series, or any prints or murals, please contact me Micheline (Mimi) Breton through my website.
