Terra Cognita/ Incognita Tour

On this tour, students will uncover how artists across generations have reimagined the land, revealing new perspectives on landscape, history, and our shared future in the face of climate change. This exhibition brings together historical and contemporary artworks from WAG-Qaumajuq’s permanent collection to explore how artists have represented and reimagined the land. Included art works by four local contemporary artists: Anna Binta Diallo, Sarah Fuller, and Debra Frances Plett, alongside Lourdes Still, who created a new commission for the exhibit.
