About the Artist
David John Angaiak is a multimedia visual artist and educator whose work expresses his Yup’ik Eskimo and Unungan Aleut heritage. Combining traditional and contemporary disciplines, his art often depicts nature from personal experiences centered around bird and sea life encountered along the coasts of his ancestral homeland in Bristol Bay, Alaska. Today his work can be found in private art collections and museums, both nationally and abroad. 

In conjunction with Tricksters and Sourdoughs: Humor and Identity in Alaska, now on view in the Northern Narratives gallery on the second floor.
