Jump into the rich world of archives with three Inuit artists featured in the winter issue of the Inuit Art Quarterly, Gathering: Lindsay McIntyre, asinnajaq, and Niap. How do Inuit artists engage with the personal memories and shared histories embedded within photographs, videos, and sounds of the past? This workshop is an invitation to reflect on how artists can work with these materials to renew old ideas and inspire new ones.
The panel will also discuss some of the major historical challenges to building and maintaining Inuit art archives, as well as inspirations and challenges each of them has encountered with specific examples from their own practice.
