daughter of Luke Anguhadlaqmarried to Josiah Nooeelarklik ;Same as Albrecht but this section has gallery info etc. Born: May 10, 1932 Female E2-296 Resides: Baker Lake; also lived in Back River area Drawings, Prints, Wallhangings N.B.: A drawing by Ruth Qaulluaryuk was incorrectly attributed to Francis  Kaluraq in Macdonald Stewart Art Centre's exhibition "Contemporary Inuit  Drawings", p.60. See syllabics.    "Both a draftsperson and a textile artist, Ruth Qaulluaryuk is best known  for her lyrical depictions of the Arctic, particularly its abundant wildlife,  dense, colorful vegetation, and virgin spaces. Qaulluaryuk has no formal  training as an artist, but, like many Inuit women of her generation, she had  adapted her traditional sewing skills and aesthetic sensibilities to the  making of wall-hangings and drawings.   Born and raised in the remote Back River area of the Keewatin region of  the Northwest Territories, Canada, Qaulluaryuk lived a traditional nomadic  existence until the late 1950s, when a severe shortage of land foods led to  starvation among the Inuit in the Central Arctic. Qaulluaryuk and her family  reluctantly moved to the nearby settlement of Baker Lake in the early 1970s to find relief from the hardships of camp life and to enable the children to ;  to school. Hers was one of the last families to do so.   In order to contribute to the family income Qaulluaryuk turned her hand to sewing clothing and craft items for sale to the newly established Arts and  Crafts program operated by the federal government.... Qaulluaryuk is the  daughter of Baker Lake artist Luke Anguhadluq. Her husband, Josiah Nuilaalik,  is also an artist in Baker Lake. They have seven children and numerous  grandchildren."
