[FR] Artiste inuite canadienne née à Kinngait — Cape Dorset en 1991, Ooloosie Saila baigne dans un milieu artistique depuis sa plus tendre enfance. Elle est d’abord sensibilisée au dessin par le biais de la grand-mère de l’une de ses amies, la célèbre artiste Kenojuak Ashevak, chez qui elle se rend régulièrement. De visite en visite, Ooloosie cultive ses compétences plastiques et développe une pratique audacieuse des couleurs et de la composition qui caractérisent désormais son travail. Elle est également la petite-fille de Pauta Saila, artiste sculpteur. Plusieurs des paysages nordiques de Ooloosie font aujourd’hui partie de la collection du Musée des beaux-arts de Montréal. Ooloosie Saila trace les formes primaires de ses œuvres d’une ligne assurée, mais jamais droite. Épuré, l’espace qu’elle travaille est d’abord divisé en sections courbes et vibrantes. La couleur vient ensuite. Elle sature l’espace choisi de la pointe de ses crayons, souvent du bleu, d’abord attirée par l’idée de puiser dans son imagination sa propre version du paysage plutôt que d’en faire une reproduction fidèle. Un imaginaire qui n’a d’égal que l’immensité des étendues arctiques qui l’inspirent. [EN] Canadian Inuit artist born in Kinngait—Cape Dorset in 1991, Ooloosie Saila has been immersed in an artistic environment since her early childhood. She was first introduced to drawing through one of her friend’s grandmother, the famous artist Kenojuak Ashevak, whom she visits regularly. From one visit to the next, Ooloosie cultivates her plastic skills and develops a bold practice of colour and composition that now characterizes her work. She’s also the granddaughter of sculptor Pauta Saila. Many of Ooloosie’s northern landscapes are now part of the Montreal Museum of Fine Art’s collection. Ooloosie Saila traces the primary forms of her works with a line that is confident, but never straight. The refined space she works in is first divided into curved and vibrant sections. Next comes the colour. She saturates the chosen space with the tip of her pencils, often in blue, attracted by the idea of drawing her own version of the landscape from her imagination rather than making a faithful reproduction. Her imagination is only matched by the immensity of the Arctic expanses that inspire her.
