Despite the particularly problems artists face north of the 60th parallel, Dolphus Cadieux is well on his way to becoming internationally recognized as a carver and as a painter.
Born and bred in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Cadieux is a Metis artist who has learned to overcome the remoteness northern artist's often face.
"The North is pretty isolated, there's not too much of an art community here.
I'm usually working in isolation. I go south quite a bit just to keep up. I go to the galleries."
