The exhibition features art objects from the period during which the Inuit slowly abandoned their centuries-old nomadic lifestyle and moved into small settlements. The art reflects the culture they were leaving behind - hence Iqqaipaa which means ''I remember'' - with artifacts made out of indigenous materials such as whalebone, ivory, antler and soapstone. |
