In Berlin, the work of celebrated artist Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas is at the centre of the newly opened Humboldt Forum.

Artist Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas created this illustration for our autumn 2019 issue.

Yahgulanaas’s work emblemizes different cultures joining, rather than clashing. He is always mindful of art as an active participant in a larger discussion, and always vigilant, even though his work is overwhelmingly playful and positive.
