We Sell for Less, Much Less

Nuna Parr was a multimedia artist based out of Kinngait (Cape Dorset), NU. Nuna passed away in the winter of 2026. His parents’ artistic abilities brought them to the Kinngait co-op where they were regularly part of print and graphic collections. Parr began carving at a young age as a way to earn extra income and had an affinity for wildlife, rendering them in soapstone. He began carving on a smaller scale during recess while still at school, it is not until he was older that he began carving on a larger scale. Parr’s work depicts animals in fanciful and human-like poses, graceful in their movement, in juxtaposition to the solid pieces of local stone that he uses. Parr was a skilled hunter on the land, and his careful observation of arctic wildlife served him well in his art practice with his realistic rendering of animals. He will be missed.
