John Tiktak Sold at Auction Prices

b. 1916 - d. 1981

John Tiktak (1916 in Kareak camp – 1981) was a Canadian Inuk sculptor who spent most of his artistic career in Rankin Inlet. Most of his sculptures take the human form as their subject.

Tiktak lived a traditional Inuit lifestyle until he moved to Arviat (then known as Eskimo Point and also called Aqviat) in the 1950s. He moved to Rankin Inlet (also known as Kangiqilniq) in 1958, where he began to work as a sculptor in 1963.

His figurative work is minimal in style, and so is modern in appearance. Distinctive stylistic traits include very rounded forms and hands that are attached to the sides of the figure, so that the arms are circular in shape.

This work in particular pays homage to the prehistoric period of Canadian Inuit art, reminding us of objects from the late Dorset Culture. It is carved all around and does not stand on its end or on a base, as it is meant to be handled rather than displayed much like an artifact. Tiktak’s multiple faces carvings which he began to carve in the late 1960’s are not unusual, however his use of walrus ivory is. In Tiktak’s 1970 retrospective exhibition catalogue, George Swinton considers Tiktak’s unique expression through his sculpture, “Tiktak is preeminently an image maker. A producer of thoughts and ideas rather than of actions or events; a maker of form rather than of subject matter; a shaper of personages rather than of persons; a creator rather than an illustrator.”Estimate: $3,000—5,000

Arms meet fluidly at the man's head, creating a circular shape and an enclosing space for the work. This, in turn, emphasizes the figure's three dimensionality and encourages the viewer to consider him from several angles. The work conjures the image from the iconic painting "The Scream" by Edvard Munch.

While he was recovering in hospital, a nurse told him that he could earn some money by carving, so that is what he did. In 1963, Tiktak committed himself to being a professional carver, working with a few specific images, including mother and child, single seated and standing figures, and heads. Tiktak's work is further characterized by a complete absence of hands and by animated faces with features which, over the years have become more and more deeply incised."Emily E.
