Couzyn Van Heuvelen: Bait

In this exhibition, acclaimed Inuk sculptor and installation artist Couzyn van Heuvelen addresses critical issues, such as his people’s survival and sovereignty, through “reinterpreting and reimagining Inuit hunting and fi shing implements.” Characteristic of his practice, he marries Inuit culture and tradition to contemporary materials such as aluminum, glass and steel, while also experimenting with process, scale and abstraction. Originally from Iqaluit, van Heuvelen is based in Bowmanville, Ontario.
