Northern Culture, Recreation, Sport

This is a place where we take the opportunity to honour the voices of Aboriginal sculptors, painters, carvers and potters.

The original work of these master artisans portrays the beauty and spirituality of Aboriginal culture, echoing the close relationship with the land, the elements and all living things.

Robert Jerome

Robert Jerome is a treaty Indian from Northern Saskatchewan. His antler carvings are very well known across the north and have been added to collections locally, nationally, and as far afield as the United States and Singapore. While Robert works primarily with antlers, he also employs alabaster and the local Wapawekka pipestone in many of his pieces.

In addition to his connection with the north, Robert spent much of his youth in southern Saskatchewan and Alberta. Robert is the child of a professional artist and was raised in an environment rich with artistic exposure and aboriginal cultural traditions.

"As a person with deep respect for the land and my culture, I try to project that pride through my artwork.”

Robert is also a successful artist of 2 dimensional works – primarily pen and ink drawings. He has received many commissions including the design of a medallion for a nationally sanctioned sporting event and the preparation of aboriginal screen print designs for clothing. For the future, Robert is looking forward to expanding his artistic endeavours into the fields of screen printing and casting as well as continuing his successful antler carving activities.
