New Ottawa art gallery exhibit showcases northern Indigenous artists from around the world
A new exhibition titled "Qillaniq" opens at the National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa, showcasing over 70 Indigenous circumpolar artists from around the world. Curated by Laakkuluk Williamson and Taqralik Partridge, both Inuit artists, the show was assembled in just two years and features works made from materials like arctic cotton, fish skin, and smoked caribou hide, exploring themes of family, connection to land, and Indigenous radical joy.
