Throat Singing Gathering Litographie 56.1 x 76 cm 1991 © Kenojuak Ashevak and Dorset Fine Arts Née en 1927 à Ikirisaq sur la côte sud de l’Île de Baffin, Kenojuak Ashevak est une artiste inuit reconnue et son travail a été plusieurs fois récompensé, notamment par l’Ordre du Canada en 1982. En accord avec la tradition inuit, elle a reçu de ses parents le nom de son grand-père maternel dont les qualités l’honorent. Elle a grandi sur le territoire de chasse de sa famille et selon un mode de vie nomade avant de rejoindre sa grand-mère maternelle qui lui a enseigné le tannage des peaux (destinés à la Compagnie de la Baie d’Hudson) ou la confection de vêtements. Par la suite, elle est devenue la première femme de Cape Dorset à réaliser des estampes à partir du crayon mine, du crayon feutre ou en utilisant des techniques comme celle du pochoir, de la gravure sur pierre ou encore de la lithographie. Cette lithographie intitulée Le rassemblement des chanteuses de gorge reflète à plusieurs égards la singularité du style et la subjectivité de Kenojuak Ashevak. Les seules références à la figure humaine dans ses œuvres apparaissent sous les traits de femmes inuit ou de Sedna, la déesse de la mer. La présence des oiseaux témoigne de l’importance qui est accordée aux animaux à la fois garants de l’équilibre de la communauté et de sa survie. Le comité de rédaction tient à honorer la mémoire de Kenojuak Ashevak, décédée en janvier 2013, et remercie chaleureusement Dorset Fine Arts pour avoir permis la reproduction de l’œuvre sur la couverture de ces Cahiers du CIÉRA.

Il recueille plusieurs contributions de chercheurs, d’étudiants et d’artistes ayant participé au colloque du CIÉRA-AÉA des 17 et 18 avril 2013. Le colloque avait été organisé en collaboration avec l’Association des femmes autochtones du Canada (AFAC) et l’Association des femmes autochtones du Québec (AFAQ) et souhaitait souligner la forte capacité d’organisation des femmes autochtones. Tout au long de ces deux journées, des communications avaient été présentées sur des questions variées liées à la justice, à la santé, à l’environnement et à la gouvernance. Le programme de recherche ARUC Leadership inuit et gouvernance au Nunavut et au Nunavik : Récits de vie, perspectives analytiques et formation y avait organisé une table-ronde intitulée « Les femmes inuit et le leadership ». L’objectif de celle-ci était de poursuivre la réflexion entamée avec la publication de récits de vie de femmes inuit en position de leadership (McComber et Partridge 2010). Certaines présentations données à l’occasion de cette table-ronde sont reproduites dans les pages qui suivent. Dans l’optique de cette publication, il est apparu intéressant de dépasser les frontières de l’Arctique et d’ouvrir ce numéro des Cahiers du CIÉRA à l’ensemble des femmes autochtones. De même, si les thèmes du leadership et de la gouvernance sont les points de départ de la majorité des contributions, nous n’avons pas voulu écarter des textes qui se concentraient sur d’autres questions tout en apportant des éléments de réflexion sur la complexité et la diversité du leadership autochtone. Les articles publiés dans ce numéro proposent une réflexion sur la place et le rôle des femmes autochtones, la nature de leur investissement dans l’espace public et leur degré de participation dans la prise de décisions collectives. Ces contributions permettent également d’identifier certains obstacles rencontrés par les femmes dans leur quotidien et au cours de leur trajectoire professionnelle, qui les empêchent de jouer un rôle moteur dans la direction des affaires collectives. Les témoignages oraux ou artistiques de femmes autochtones publiés dans ce numéro illustrent quant à eux la façon dont les femmes autochtones prennent position et font entendre leur voix dans l’espace public. Les femmes autochtones ont ceci de particulièrement marquant qu’elles ont senti le besoin, au cours des dernières décennies, de se regrouper au sein d’associations et d’organisations pour être en mesure de se faire entendre par les instances décisionnelles officielles et ainsi imposer leur agenda. Ces associations constituent le point de départ de nombreuses actions visant à défendre les droits des 3 femmes autochtones. Au Canada, elles ont été créées dans les années 1970, alors que les femmes luttaient pour que soit reconnue leur égalité de droits (ce n’est qu’en 1976 que les femmes obtiennent pleinement leur reconnaissance juridique dans la Charte des droits et libertés de la personne du Québec). À cette époque, les femmes autochtones ont pris conscience de leur droit à réclamer un traitement égalitaire et elles ont ainsi porté devant les tribunaux la nature discriminatoire de la Loi sur les Indiens. C’est dans ce contexte qu’ont été créées, en 1974, l’Association des femmes autochtones du Canada (AFAC) et l’Association des femmes autochtones du Québec (AFAQ). Par la suite, d’autres associations et des sociétés visant à défendre les droits des femmes autochtones ont vu le jour dans toutes les provinces du Canada. On en compte aujourd’hui pas moins d’une douzaine. Les femmes inuit du Canada se sont quant à elles regroupées en 1984 au sein de l’association Pauktuutit, créée avec le mandat de promouvoir l’égalité des femmes dans les différents domaines de la vie sociale. Au cours de la dernière décennie, deux jeunes associations ont également vu le jour : Saturviit, l’association des femmes inuit du Nunavik (2005) et AnânauKatiget Tumingit Regional Inuit Women’s Association, l’association des femmes inuit du Nunatsiavut (2007). En marge de ces associations, certaines initiatives militantes ont permis aux femmes autochtones de se regrouper, tout en donnant une visibilité publique à certaines causes, que l’on pense aux Marcheuses innues, au mouvement Idle no more ou encore au mouvement Am I next? sur Facebook.

  • Re-Creating Indigenous Architectural Knowledge in Arctic Canada and Norawy
    Protection of cultural heritage 9 (2020) 10.35784/odk.2085 RE-CREATING INDIGENOUS ARCHITECTURAL KNOWLEDGE IN ARCTIC CANADA AND NORAWY MACKIN Nancy 1 1 dr Nancy Mackin, University of British Columbia and University of Victoria, Canada https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5427-3202 ABSTRACT: Long resident peoples including Gwich’in, Inuvialuit, Copper Inuit, and Sami, Coast Salish and others have learned over countless generations of observation and experimentation to construct place-specific, biomimetic architecture. To learn more about the heritage value of long-resident peoples’ architecture, and to discover how their architecture can selectively inform adaptable architecture of the future. we engaged Inuit and First Nations knowledge-holders and young people in re-creating tradition-based shelters and housing. During the reconstructions, children and Elders alike expressed their enthusiasm and pride in the inventiveness and usefulness of their ancestral architectural wisdom. Several of the structures created during this research are still standing years later and continue to serve as emergency shelters for food harvesters. During extreme weather, the shelters contribute to a potentially widespread network of food harvester dwellings that would facilitate revitalization of traditional foodways. The re-creations indicate that building materials, forms, assembly technologies, and other considerations from the architecture of Indigenous peoples provide a valuable heritage resource for architects of the future. KEY WORDS: Indigenous, Arctic architecture, Inuit architecture, reconstructions, heritage 58 Nancy Mackin 1. Introduction and research questions Tradition-based shelters have always been part of life in the high Arctic, where sudden storms and extreme cold pose serious risks to food harvesters, scientists, and other people out on the land.

  • Wooden Architecture's Role in Maintaining Eco Sustainability Dr
    مجلة العمارة والفنون العدد الرابع عشر Wooden Architecture's role in maintaining eco sustainability Dr. Yousef Abdulsalam Teacher - Faculty of Fine Arts. Damascus University - Faculty of fine Arts – Interior Design Dept. [email protected] Synopsis : Wood played an important and vital role in the construction of buildings as a structural material in the design of structures, frames, coverings and finishes of buildings from outside and inside or structural foundations. These wooden structures included temples, religious shrines, huts and dwellings in hot , temperate and cold regions, depending on the availability of forest trees and as materials for rapid construction that can be dismantled and installed , The value of timber arises from its natural properties and specifications as a building material . Wood is characterized by a variety of properties in terms of density, specific gravity, size and operability. Wood has an important environmental role, as the availability of its resources enhances the opportunities for its investment in commercial activities. The research deals with the variety of applications of wood construction in various uses, externally and internally, and in different climates and structural structures of roofs, walls, floors and covers. Wood is renewable, recyclable and environmentally degradable without contaminants. This research is a presentation guide and a global tour of some of the world's national architecture, which can simply be described as the architecture of peoples, Designed and built by communities,

  • To the Problem of the Use of Forming Principles in the Residential Buildings Architecture with Regard to the Energy Efficiency
    MATEC Web of Conferences 106, 01034 (2017) DOI: 10.1051/ matecconf/201710601034 SPbWOSCE-2016 To the problem of the use of forming principles in the residential buildings architecture with regard to the energy efficiency Olga Bancerova1,* 1Moscow State University of Civil Engineering (Nacional Research University), Yaroslavskoye Chaussee, Moscow, 129337, Russian Federation Abstract. The aim of this study was to determine the role of the formation process in the architecture of residential buildings to improve their energy efficiency. The analysis of various types of national dwellings has been carried out, in which the criterion for evaluating the architectural form of the building was the volume compactness index associated with its form. The ratio of the area of the outer building structure to the heated volume is accepted for the index of compactness. The dwellings of the peoples in the North Russia and Siberia, Armenia, South India and Central Asia have been studied. It is shown that the morphogenesis of residential buildings could be the determining factor for a low consumption of thermal energy used for heating of buildings. The author concluded that, in addition to the use of advanced modern energy-saving technologies, the work with the architectural form is also important for energy consumption savings. 1 Introduction Currently, the problem of energy efficiency of buildings is related primarily to the increasing energy consumption in the process of buildings maintenance for the following creation of a favorable microclimate in rooms and premises [1]. The depletion of natural resources and the increase in human population causes the problem of the need in saving energy.

  • Modernism and Reindeer in the Bering Straits
    More Things on Heaven and Earth: Modernism and Reindeer in the Bering Straits By Bathsheba Demuth Summer 2012 Bathsheba Demuth is a PhD candidate in the Department of History at the University of California, Berkeley The Scene On a modern map, the shoulders of Eurasia and North America nearly touch at the Bering Strait, a 52-mile barrier between Old World and New. During the rolling period of ice ages known as the Pleistocene, the Pacific Ocean pulled back leaving the Chukchi Peninsula connected to Alaska’s Seward Peninsula by a wide, grassy plain. Two million years ago, the animal we call the reindeer emerged along this continental juncture.1 As glaciers spread, reindeer followed them southward; by 20,000 years ago, Rangifer tarandus had moved deep into Western Europe, forming the base of Neolithic hunters’ diets and appearing, antlers lowered in the fall rutting charge, on the walls of Lascaux.2 Reindeer, like our human ancestors who appeared a million and a half years after them, are products of the ice age. They are gangly, long-nosed, and knob-kneed, with a ruff of white fur around their deep chests, swooping antlers and nervous ears, and have the capacity to not just survive but thrive in million-strong herds despite the Arctic dark and cold. Like any animal living in the far north, reindeer – or caribou, as they are known in North America – must solve the problem of energy. With the sun gone for months of the year, the photosynthetic transfer of heat into palatable calories is minimal; plants are small, tough, often no more than the rock-like scrum of lichens.

In fact, the love of nature is probably why many of us once moved here. Following the changing of the seasons makes life a little richer, more sustainable and less stress- ful. That’s probably why we are warm and welcom- ing. We want you to feel as good as we do. More than half of the natural world here is protected, all because of its high value. And “high value” when it comes to nature doesn’t mean that it is beautiful — even though it is. No, it means that it is rare, unique and worth protecting for future generations. Even if the nature here in many ways is un- touched and unspoilt, we rather not call it wilder- ness. People have lived here for six thousand years, and every hilltop, lake and mire has a name. It is brimming with history. There’s a season here for everyone, as well as a terrain for everyone. In the west there are the mountains and alpine areas. In the east there are woods, picturesque villages and green, cultivated lands.

We, father Johnny and son Levi decided to start a tour-riding business in 2017. This was the first offering of this kind in the Alta region. Horses do not dominate next to reindeer and dogsledding in the tourism infrastructure in the north. So, being the first who started a business in this field gives us a competitive advantage. Eight Norwegian Fjord Horses, sleigh rides, local food and arctic silence guarantee an appealing offer to tourists during the winter period. Our common tours can vary from three to four hours including picking up guests and food serving in the evening. Please, visit our website to get an impression of who we are running Flatmoen Natur and what kind of activities and services we have available. Company’s Plans and Projects Sautso, the Alta River Canyon, is North Europe’s deepest one. Attracting hikers, seasonal salmon anglers, and hunters. Flatmoen Nature is located rather close to Sautso and we identified the canyon as a new … Since the business during the winter season works well, we are making new plans for the non- wintertime. The new projects aim at two main customer segments a) Tour riders – Our new product is Riding tours up to the Sautso canyon, daytrip as well as overnight tours b) Hunters – One product for hunters is hunting on the back of a horse A second one is the transport of hunting equipment by horses Additionally, the company will build two comfortable high-end cabins in 2021.
