Some of Anguhadluq’s most powerful images depict a central character banging an outsized drum surrounded by a bevy of onlookers each radiating out from the center almost as seen from above. In this wonderful image, Anguhadluq has accorded center stage to a pair of athletes engaged in a game of strength, all under the watchful eye of the drummer. While the imagery and composition are pure Anguhadluq, the colour palette is reminiscent of the graphic works of his wife Marion Tuu’luq (see First Arts 01 Dec 202, Lot 130).
