Positioned at the intersection of art, politics, and activism, this exhibition presents the work of an ad hoc group of artists aiming to bring awareness to the Arctic community of Panniqtuuq and its urgent waste crisis. Inuit artists Madeleine Aasivak Qumuataq, Jupa Ishulutak, Kawtysie Kakee, Annie Kilabuk (1932-2005), David Kilabuk, Talia Metuq, Oleepika Nashalik, and Malaya Pitsiulak, with settler artist and researcher, Micky Renders, present a body of work that unearths personal and collective stories from lived experience providing a powerful counter-narrative to commonly held notions about the Inuit, settler colonialism, and waste itself. The exhibition centres the voices of Inuit artists to share their stories through painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, tapestry and digital media. This show aims to open axes of dialogue and support for Inuit sovereignty, self-determination, and the right to a healthy and safe environment. Gallery hours are 11 a.m. - 5 p.m. Wednesday to Sun
