  • ASHOONA, Shuvinai

    ASHOONA, Shuvinai

    SUVINAI ASHOONA (SUVENAI) Date of Birth: August 5, 1961 Male/Female: Female E7-1954 Place of Birth: Cape Dorset Mother: Sorosolutu Ashoona Father: Kiawak Ashoona Shuvenai was born in Cape Dorset in August, 1961. She is the daughter of Kiawak Ashoona and Sorosilutu, both well known for their contributions to the arts in Cape Dorset. Shuvenai began drawing in 1993. She works with pen and ink, coloured pencils and oil sticks and her sensibility for the landscape around the community of cape Dorset is particularly impressive. Her recent work is very personal and often meticulously detailed. Shuvenai’s work was first included in the Cape Dorset annual print collection in 1997 with two small dry-point etchings entitled Interior (97-33) and Settlement (97-34). Since then, she has become a committed and prolific graphic artist, working daily in the Kinngait Studios Shuvenai’s work has attracted the attention of several notable private galleries as well as public institutions. She was featured along with her aunt, Napachie Pootoogook, and her grandmother, the late Pitseolak Ashoona, in the McMichael Canadian Collection’s 1999 exhibition entitled “Three Women, Three Generations”. More Recently she was profiled along with Kavavau Manumee of Cape Dorset and Mick Sikkuak of Gjoa Haven in the Spring 2008 issue of Border Crossings, a Winnipeg-based arts magazine. In an unusual contemporary collaboration, Suvinai recently worked with Saskatchewan-based artist, John Noestheden, on a "sky-mural" that was exhibited at the 2008 Basel Art Fair and was shown again at Toronto’s 2008 "Nuit Blanche". It later traveled to the 18th Biennale of Sydney in 2012 and in 2013 it was part of ‘Sakahans’ an exhibition of international Indigenous art at the National Gallery of Canada.

    Transforming Toronto's Public Spaces Through Creative

    Re/making the ‘Meeting Place’ – Transforming Toronto’s public spaces through Creative Placemaking, Indigenous Story and Planning Down and Out - City Living, Aaron Paquette, First Nations Metis by Nelly Volpert Knizhnik supervised by Ravi de Costa A Major Paper submitted to the Faculty of Environmental Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Environmental Studies York University, Toronto, Ontario, Canada March 29, 2017 i Re/making the ‘Meeting Place’ – Transforming Toronto’s public spaces through Creative Placemaking, Indigenous Story and Planning Foreword My Plan of Study explores the possibilities of creative design and urban planning in progressive transformation of urban landscapes. The art of Placemaking is particularly important since, in my view, it offers practical holistic ways to make and remake our environment. How do we design cities that are just, inclusive, safe and sustainable? How do we create thriving urban places that are both attractive and democratic? Does a change in the build environment impact urban communities and neighbourhoods? How do we turn a space into a place? The New York based Project for Public Spaces (PPS) defines a place as a space that people use for activities they enjoy doing. It is a space that is designed around a community. A place is not just to look at, it is to use. A place then combines physical materiality with attached meanings and subjective interpretations. To address such a complex construct, urban planning initiatives require original and integrated approach that melds together contributions from a number of disciplines such as sociology, visual arts, ecology, urban planning, geography, politics and law.
