Okittuq’s work has been inspired by themes surrounding shamanism and transformation. Her figures are often in the process of changing between amalgamations of two or more animals. . She will usually polish the material to a waxy luminescence. Okittuq is skilled in emphasizing the natural changes in colour of the stone that she uses.
