Of mixed settler/Inuvialuit heritage, Ingniq often creates work that reflects both aspects of her cultural identity as well as broader social issues related to Indigenous people today. Often working with reclaimed or rescued materials in her art- making, Ingniq takes an intuitive and mindful approach to art. In part, this is a reactionary, conscious choice regarding the amount of rampant waste in this capitalist/consumerist society, as well as a symbolic gesture adding to the reclamation of identity. The need to create work like this is to focus on evolving activism that seeks to generate dialogue and awareness about the current and historical aspects influencing Indigenous people, as well as other groups of marginalized individuals and problems to generate opportunities for more inclusive and supportive societies.

  • William Leroy “Roy” Stevenson Exhibition History And
    WILLIAM LEROY “ROY” STEVENSON EXHIBITION HISTORY AND CHRONOLOGY compiled by Chris Varley and Nancy Townshend “I believe he [William Leroy Stevenson] was one of Canada’s greatest artists, especially as a landscape painter.” Maxwell Bates in a letter dated February 19, 1976 to Terry Fenton, Art Gallery of Alberta Archives. “We were of enormous help to each other; of that I am sure.” Maxwell Bates, “The Painter WLS: a Memoir, 2” Maxwell Bates fonds, 439/89.1, Box/file 10.2, Special Collections, Taylor Family Digital Library, University of Calgary. Illingworth Kerr; “Maxwell Bates, Dramatist”, Canadian Art, Vol. XIII, No. 4, Summer 1956: “After high school he [Bates] became associated with his father in architecture, though his real passion was for painting. The idea of nationalism in Canadian art did not affect him. Self-taught, except for two years in evening classes, he became influenced by Gauguin, van Gogh and Cézanne. When his work was shown in Calgary in 1928 it shocked the local artists, public and press. Though he exhibited in Vancouver, Ottawa and New York, the home town remained unimpressed.” His chief sustaining force was a fellow painter, Roy Stevenson, with whom Bates made a stimulating visit to the Chicago Art Institute.” 1905 May 25 - born in Guelph, Ontario Born with infantile paralysis: had a lame club foot. “Parents did not give him any encouragement to paint. Nonetheless he thought only about art.” 2 Gerry Stevenson (brother of Roy) in an interview with Nancy Townshend, October 31, 1988, as quoted by Nancy Townshend, A History of Art in Alberta 1905 – 1970 (Calgary: Bayeux Arts, 2005) 2.

Open to all current AUArts students, the seminar focused on freelance art writing for emerging artists and writers, and covered topics ranging from copyediting and communicating with editors to financial management and contracts. Following the seminar, students were invited to submit letters of interest and short writing samples in application for the program, and eight students were selected to participate: Carmen Belanger, oualie frost, Caro Ging, Levin Ifko, Meghan Ivany, Chantal Lafond, Raewyn Reid, and Yuii Savage. Continuing into April of 2020, the participants took part in a series of workshops and editing sessions led by Clintberg to develop written responses both to exhibitions on campus and within the community. Award-winning senior art critic Nancy Tousley was invited to lead an editing session and provide feedback on the students’ writing.
