The Enchanted Owl

The Owl and Our Story

The artwork The Enchanted Owl, by Inuit Canadian artist Kenojuak Ashevak, is a landmark of contemporary Arctic graphic art and a symbol of sensitivity, strength, and ancestry.

At Klempp Advogados, the owl represents more than an aesthetic element — it symbolizes wisdom, the ability to see from afar, at night, with strategic clarity and broad vision. A reference to the way we choose to work: with depth, precision, and perspective.

The artwork inspired our visual identity as a tribute to intelligence that observes, analyzes, and decides with consistency. Here, we honor Kenojuak Ashevak, one of the first female graphic artists from Cape Dorset, whose art transcends cultures and inspires us to see beyond.
