Qumuaqataijut was commissioned for the Montreal Olympics in 1976. The lithograph, which Soroseelutu produced at Kinngait Studios in Cape Dorset, depicts traditional Inuit games, specifically illustrating how a trampoline-like bouncing surface is made. The artwork is in the collections of both the Canadian Museum of History in Gatineau, Quebec and the Remai Modern in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.
