David Ruben Piqtoukun: Sculpture as a form of storytelling, his residential school experience, and his exhibition “Radical Remembrance”
Q | Oct 2, 2023
David Ruben Piqtoukun is a Governor General's Award-winning Inuvialuk sculptor whose work channels the stories he's heard from Inuit elders and others in his community. His major exhibition “Radical Remembrance” highlights 50 pieces in honour of the 50 years he’s spent sculpting and stone carving. David talks to Tom about the exhibition, sculpting as a form of storytelling, and how his residential school experience felt like an “education in forgetting.”
