Madeleine Isserkut Kringayak (ᐃᓯᑯ) (1928–1984), was a Canadian Inuk sculptor and jewelry artist. Her sculptures were carved primarily from natural materials such as soapstone (steatite), bone, and antler reflecting the hunting habits and daily life of her family and the Inuit at large. Born in 1928 to carver Apollina Nobvak (1906-1965), she married fellow carver Nicholas Kringayark in 1942. Their daughters, Martha Ulliyak Milortok born 1944 and Simona Kringayark are also practicing carvers. Her work is included in the permanent collection of the National Gallery of Canada.
