- Pertains to a publication showcasing artistic pieces from a variety of Inuit artists in Canada. The publication provides images of Inuit carvings, as well as other various forms of artistic expression. While the publication seeks to tell the story of the art, it is lacking Inuit voices and thus carries an innate bias.
