Lukta Qiatsuk (Inuit, 1928-2004)

Owl, 1959

Stonecut on paper

photographed at Brooklyn Museum

“[This work] belongs to the first official catalogued collection released by Kinngait's West Baffin Eskimo Co-operative in 1959, shortly after the introduction of printmaking to the Canadian Arctic two years prior. Many early Kinngait graphic artists adapted their skills as stone carvers to engrave stone matrices used for printmaking. Their work often illustrates the natural world, such as…Lukta Qiatsuk's playful image of an owl taking flight.”

A few pages from a 2016 booklet promoting Inuit art from Dorset Fine Arts, which operates under the West Baffin Eskimo Cooperative.

"Established in 1959, West Baffin Eskimo Cooperative has enjoyed an international reputation for the exquisite prints, drawings and carvings created by its Inuit artist members. In addition to operation of the Kinngait Studios at the Kenojuak Cultural Centre in Kinngait, the cooperative maintains a Toronto marketing division office, Dorset Fine Arts, which is responsible for interfacing with galleries, museums, cultural professionals, Inuit art enthusiasts and the art market globally. The role of West Baffin Eskimo Cooperative has significantly expanded to include communications, promotion, advocacy, government relations and special projects as related to the Inuit art of Kinngait. Governed by an all-Inuit Board of Directors, the organization also maintains a local retail grocery/hardware store, a restaurant, rental properties and various utility contracts. As a community owned organization, practically all Kinngait adults are shareholders, profits are distributed back to the community in the form of annual dividends."

Weird tip for building in survival Minecraft: Don't build a storage room. In my experience, if I make a big house with a few pretty rooms that do nothing, and a big ugly storage room, I spend all my time in the big ugly storage room because that's where everything useful is and I have no practical reason to go into any of the other rooms. Instead, depending on the scale of your build and how many resources you gather, you can place chests and barrels in decorative ways throughout your base and fill them with items appropriate to the room in some way. For example, a smelting/stonecutting room could include your furnaces, a compact stone generator, and maybe an entrance to your strip mine. In this room though, you can include storage for your stone blocks, metals, and furnace fuel. This system makes sorting your items easier, removes a potentially unappealing room from your plans, and gives you reason to visit all of the pretty rooms you spent hours decorating!

#musings #minecraft #not the first person to think of this but i like this approach #i'm building a castle in survival that's going to have lots of functional rooms #i'm going to have the smelting/stonecutting room i used as an example here #the idea is i can throw a ton of stuff into my furnaces and mine stone in the same room while i wait #it's gonna be so useful

so this book keeps whiplashing back and forth between 'oh this is great actually' and 'hmm this is the worst time I have ever had at a book'

#ramblings #the captain's library #the second one is BY FAR an exaggeration because the honor of The Worst Time I Have Ever Had At A Book definitively goes to #devil in the white city which messed me up for Months #back on topic there are some things in here that Delight and Fascinate me but unfortunately they remain contained in a book that is #well it is what it is and that is all I shall say on That matter #and Yeah I'd also be easily be seduced under the mountain by a fairy-lady who gave me stonecutting tools. this I know. #other things that are of interest. I like that the biggest villainy here (unlike her other books) are of Things Which Are Fundamentally #Inhuman and the main ones of those are the Fae (or fae-adjacent) and the Company Store #THAT THERE is good symbolisming. #transcribed accents still getting me down but Also I do like when I can spot the scots and welsh loanwords now #nothing feeds the autism beast quite like Recognizing Cool Thing I Sorta Know About

would it be like totally out of pocket to ask a friendly patient to not call me by my worksona's name bc like I feel like if I don't hear a real human call me by my actual name soon I'm going to go postal

#distant citrus sounds #I have been exclusively deadnamed out loud for. a while. #and I used to think it didn't bother me but yknow stonecutting? #I feel like it's too late to just go by grae at work #I'm not going to do it for a number of reasons #least of all bc my boss is convinced said patient is my soulmate and not like. #just some guy who I would enjoy being friends with had we met under other circumstances where he was not a patient at my work #and him calling me by a 'nickname' would only stoke the flames of her shipping #but god like can someone call me by my name again #tbdeleted /

“Penitentiary Reported Calm After Second Riot,” Montreal Star. November 8, 1932. Page 3 & 11. --- Keeper Suffers Broken Arm as Convicts Make Second Demonstration in Week ---- CONVICTS in St. Vincent de Paul Penitentiary were again confined to their cells this morning following a sequel yesterday afternoon to Friday’s fire and riot. Prisoners working in the stonecutting shop made a rush at Keeper Albert Miron, who was in charge and in the ensuing fracas the guard's arm was broken by a blow from a sledgehammer wielded by a convict whom name has not yet been revealed. Armed guards led by Col. P. A. Piuze, warden at the penitentiary, subdued the rioters and led them to their cells. Not a shot was fired. 

Col. Piuze could not be reached by telephone this morning, being occupied in the prison yard. No fresh outbreaks were reported by residents of the village and save for the absence of the hard labor prisoners from the work on the penitentiary addition, conditions appeared normal. 

TROUBLE QUICKLY STOPPED Yesterday's trouble was of brief duration and within 29 minutes of its beginning all convicts were safely in their cells. 

Just how it started or what caused it would not be revealed by the warden. Keeper Miron was in charge of convicts in the stonecutting shop when a group of prisoners staged what was apparently an organized rush towards the guard, armed with the tools with which they were cutting stone. During the melee which ensued, the keeper's arm was broken by a blow with a sledgehammer. 

The orderly element among the group of convicts cried out in protest at the attack but were unheeded by their fellows. By this time, however, the alarm had been given and a force of armed guards headed by the warden himself appeared on the scene. The mutineers wavered before the row of levelled rifles and gave in. There were led back to their cells and Miron was taken to Ste. Jeanne D'Arc Hospital. 

The guard, who is 35, apparently received other injuries in the fracas, for when seen at the hospital his head was swathed in bandages. He declined to be interviewed but let slip the fact, however, that on Saturday and Sunday nights, he had been one of the detail of guards who had kept Chester Crossley, the Negro convict who started Friday's fire and riot under surveillance in the prison infirmary, 

News of the outbreak, which was suppressed without demonstration on the part of the other convicts, did not leak out into the village surrounding the penitentiary until late last night. The first word came from Ottawa, where Hon. Hugh Guthrie, Minister of Justice, had been immediately notified by Warden Piuze. 

There is still uncertainty as to whether an open inquiry into the disturbances at both Portsmouth and St. Vincent de Paul Penitentiaries will be held according to latest dispatches from Ottawa. There have been five, two at each of the Institutions named and the fifth at Stoney Mountain Penitentiary, Man., within the year. 

OTHER RIOTS Riots in Canadian penitentiaries during 1932 have been as follows: 

April 17, at Stoney Mountain Penitentiary. One prisoner killed and four injured. The outbreak was quickly quelled. 

October 17 at Portsmouth Penitentiary: Three hundred prisoners rioted in the workshops and trapped the warden. Royal Canadian Horse Artillery stationed at Kingston were called out but withdrew when the convicts threatened to set the shops on fire. Three prisoners were wounded. 

October 20 at Portsmouth Penitentiary. Two hundred convicts rioted, half of whom were released into prison corridors by overflow prisoners. R.C.H.A. were again called from Kingston and after some gunfire got most of the condemned men beck into their cells. Two convict were wounded. 

November 4 at St. Vincent de Paul Penitentiary. Thirty prisoners in tailor shop attacked guard with knives and hammer in an abortive escape attempt, led by Chester Crossley, Negro prisoner, sentenced to four years. Workshop building destroyed by fire warden reporting loss at $20,000. Fireman from Montreal prevented spread of blaze. Nine guards and six convicts reported injured. No lives losot and not one shot fired. 

November 7 at St. Vincent de Paul Penitentiary. A group of convict working in the prison stonecutting shop turned on their guard. Keeper Albert Miron's arm was broken by a blow with a sledgehammer delivered by a prisoner. Men finally brought under control by appearance of Warden Piuze and a force of armed guards.

hi this is my current and soon to be retired fort of fishconstructs

#fort started out bc i wanted to build more population in my civ #bc being capped at 80 dwarves n then having ur population overran by bird poeple sucks for ur dwarves #mainly bc the bird poeple cant do half the labours the dwarves can #and u cant really assign them to anything specific #i always wanted to try fully focusing on building a fort #to figure out the process n whatnot #most of my fort is subsidised by trading for any good that i didnt want to waste labour on #so id have 1 dwarf working on rock crafts and 1 dwarf cutting n encrusting those crafts with gems #maybe 5 dwarves on stonecutting? 3 for bricks 2 for furniture #2 dwarves focusing on food #which was well more than enough to supply 20 dwarves with armour and the rest ~60 with food and drink #i kinda just ran out of stuff to build. most industries either require a specific spot to be in or are more efficient if u move #the workshops around #despite 100 dwarves non of them formed any actual religious sects #and they only ever wanted a farmers guild #which makes sense tbh most of my dwarves are unskilled labourers whos only job is to haul or build #but all that kinda leaves me with nothing to build. on the fort that only exists so i can build #idk what im gonna do for the next fort maybe ill finish the bugwar on the surface. i also wanna see how fast i can get myself setup on #the third cavern layer.

The Kama Sutra pendant is a unique carving of pink opal, framed in metal. Both sides are made as realistic as possible and the matte shapes and texture convey real warm flesh as much as possible. At the same time, the carving is aesthetic. This approach makes it possible to create naturalistic images that cause delight and interest, have their own piquancy, but do not go into vulgarity.

The work of St. Petersburg stonecutter and jeweler Katerina Sakovskaya shows us the eternal theme of the interaction of male and female energy in a frank, slightly erotic, but very subtle and aesthetic way. The pendant resembles a Japanese carving, where the master constantly admires every detail of his work and it turns into a kind of meditation.
