Join us for an insightful lecture with Professor Pauline Wakeham from Western University, a Qallunaat (white settler) scholar who studies reparations for settler colonial injustices. In this talk, she will delve into the complex history of mid-century colonialism in the Arctic. Drawing connections to the Sculpting Life exhibition, Professor Wakeham will discuss the High Arctic relocations of 1953 and 1955 and their entanglement with the commercialization of Inuit art. She will also consider how Inuit are mobilizing the art of sculpture to speak back to this history and amplify Inuit Arctic belonging. This talk promises to offer a nuanced perspective on the intersections of art, history, and resilience in the Arctic.
