Inuit Nalukataq Blanket Toss Ceremony Vancouver

by Anita Marks

Rain-slicked concrete reflects the pale, diffuse glow of early evening sky within a temple courtyard near Strathcona. Four figures in heavy winter parkas with fur-lined hoods stand at the corners of a thick, woven blanket. Their boots press into the wet ground as they hold the fabric taut. In the center, a third person leaps upward, arms outstretched, suspended against the gray backdrop. Droplets rest on the dark wool fibers of the blanket and the slick surfaces of the surrounding stone. The symmetrical arrangement of the participants frames the airborne figure precisely. One droplet of water slides down the edge of a stone pillar in the foreground.
