Qummut Qukiria! celebrates art and culture within and beyond
traditional Inuit and Sami homelands in the Circumpolar Arctic --
from the continuance of longstanding practices such as storytelling
and skin sewing to the development of innovative new art forms such
as throatboxing (a hybrid of traditional Inuit throat singing and
beatboxing). In this illuminating book, curators, scholars,
artists, and activists from Inuit Nunangat, Kalaallit Nunaat,
Sapmi, Canada, and Scandinavia address topics as diverse as Sami
rematriation and the revival of the ladjogahpir (a Sami woman's
headgear), the experience of bringing Inuit stone carving to a
workshop for inner-city youth, and the decolonizing potential of
Traditional Knowledge and its role in contemporary design and
beyond. Qummut Qukiria! showcases the thriving art and culture of
the Indigenous Circumpolar peoples in the present and demonstrates
its importance for the revitalization of language, social
wellbeing, and cultural identity.
