A skilled sewer with a distinct vision, much of Veronica Kadjuak Manilak's textile works are immediately recognizable. Like many others, the main body of Untitled (Seals, Igloo, Walrus in Amautiit, Seals with Pup and Spirit, and Two Walrus) is shaped like a seal skin being prepared for stretching, At first glance there is the general mirrored symmetry that Veronica has become known for as well, the larger seals and walrus reflected against each other. Smaller details and figures begin to show the differences in this work; the amautiit have different fringing and details along their hoods, a small seal pup is chatting with a spirit with its hood up, and a single kakivak (fishing spear) leans against the igloo. The entire piece is graceful in its presentation, a scene floating on soft blue duffle.
