Saskatchewan NAC Auction House Biography and Notes

Mona Thrasher was born in 1942 in a bush camp between Aklavik and present day Inuvik in the Northwest Territories. At the age of 18, she was approached by Father Adam to paint the Stations of the Cross in the Roman Catholic Church in Inuvik (the Igloo Church). It took Thrasher just three months to paint all 14 Stations, and they hang in the church to this day. She has since created many paintings, mainly using the colours blue and white because she believes they best represent the traditional Inuit life - the sky, water, snow and ice. Her inspiration comes from the different activities which are at the core of the Inuit way of life - women cutting fish, men driving dog teams, children playing in the snow. Mona Thrasher has written "It makes me extremely happy to know that through my art, many people get a better understanding of the North and its people."
