I am a visual artist and a filmmaker, who has been working with Kingulliit productions since 2015 and with Arnait since 2012. Originally from Bulgaria, I have brought my own intercultural experience to my work with Inuit. Inspired by Kingulliit’s style, which prioritizes the power of the human experience, I have worked in the post production section of Kingulliit helping to bring that style to life through editing, and post production supervision. I helped train Inuit in video editing and have been instrumental in implementing a North-South editing system, which gives our Northern editors liberty and support.
I also bring my artistic experience to various projects of Kingulliit. I contributed to the Time Machine comic stories, and am currently leading the interactive map project “On The Land with Noah Piugattuk”.See more
Noah's first wife Tatigaq dies. He takes for a wife a woman who is starving because her husband is not taking good care of her. Her name is also Tatigaq.
When Noah Piugattuk was getting very good at hunting with a bow and arrow, rifles arrived. He then learned to hunt with a rifle and made his own bullets.
Michelline Ammaq tells the story of when Noah was young, the ice broke up and he and his sister and her baby were stuck on the floating ice. He saved them by walking on the thin, newly formed ice.
When Noah was a baby, his mother would pretend to make him walk through a window made out of intestines, so that he will become good walking on thin ice. They also tied a wolf tendon onto his kamiks to make him a good runner.
In Caribou Clothing and Storyteling Elders tell stories of people who lived on the land; showing us what the story is today, what it looks like now and who goes there now…with many questions around: are people still hunting caribou? Is it still a caribou route? Are there development companies working there now?
