Waddington's Auction House Biography and Notes

Samson Kayuryuk’s drawings served as the basis for a print in the 1965-66 experimental years and for two prints in the Baker Lake Sanavik Cooperative in 1973. Of his two 1973 contributions, this work illustrates the regional favouring of repetition and humour as motifs.
