Etulu Etidloie (aka Cape Dorset Canadian Inuit) does not have an image.
Etulu Etidloie
Canadian, (1946–2019)
Etulu Etidloie began carving in his early twenties, learning the art form by watching his father, Etidloi Etidloi carve. His brother Kelly Etidloie is an established carver in Cape Dorset as well. His son Isacci Etildoie was an innovative carver with many accomplished sculptures. Etulu has carved dancing bears, many types of birds and wolves. When starting each carving, the shape of the stone dictates what Etulu will carve. He rotates the piece of stone until the form suggests a subject. Etulu works with serpentine stone and finishes it with a high polish. He is best known for his sculptures of loons, often in flight, as well as his carvings of resting wolves.
Etulu is the son of the late Cape Dorset graphic artists Etidlooie (1911-1981) and Kingmeata Etidlooie (1915-1989).
