But it was by returning home to Millbrook, Nova Scotia, and wrestling with how to create art in and for his small community that he truly began to find his voice. Drawing on the iconography of Mi’kmaw petroglyphs and stories, Syliboy’s work blurs the lines between traditional and contemporary Native art, reaching backward while also making his viewers aware of “time’s rupture and inevitable distortion.” To purchase this title: Add it to your cart | Other Books by this Author |  | Herménégilde Chiasson: In Acadie Ray Cronin 2024 / Canadian Art, Biography, Artists / $22.95 CAN 9781554472604 / Trade paper / 64 pp |  | Colleen Wolstenholme: Complications Ray Cronin 2021 / Canadian Art, Biography, Artists / $21.95 CAN 9781554472147 / Trade paper / 64 pp |  | Maud Lewis: Creating an Icon Ray Cronin 2020 / Canadian Art Biography, Biography, Artists / $21.95 CAN 9781554472062 / Trade paper / 64 pp |  | John Greer: Hard Thought Ray Cronin 2019 / Canadian Art Biography, Biography, Artists / $21.95 CAN 9781554471980 / Trade paper / 64 pp |  | Alex Colville: A Rebellious Mind Ray Cronin 2019 / Canadian Art Biography, Biography, Artists / $21.95 CAN 9781554471881 / Trade paper / 64 pp |  | Gerald Ferguson: Thinking of Painting Ray Cronin 2018 / Canadian Art Biography, Biography, Artists / $21.95 CAN 9781554471874 / Trade paper / 64 pp |  | Mary Pratt: Still Light Ray Cronin 2018 / Canadian Art Biography, Biography, Artists / $21.95 CAN 9781554471805 / Trade paper / 64 pp |
