Born September 17 1990 (Cape Dorset, Nunavut)

Adamie Quamagiaq comes from a family of artists. In fact, he learned, from a very young age, how to carve from his father, Pauloosie Qaumagia. Like his father, Adamie’s favourite subject is the owl. Both artists are known for their unique and charming Owl sculptures.

Adamie’s owls are so distinguishable that you can tell immediately that it is by him. The eyes he creates onto his owls add depth and electricity to his pieces. This style of eyes is seen for all of his owl compositions. They add a beautiful contrast against the dark serpentine. It is known that, despite his young age, Adamie is an artist who shows considerable promise.
