This is the channel for the Mittimatalik Arnait Miqsuqtuit Collective.  The collective is made up of Leah Kippomee, Sheila Katsak, Amy Kippomee, Skylar Katsak, Nancy Wachowich, Gro Ween, and Melisa Costinea. In February 2015 we started a project in Mittimatalik (Pond Inlet) recording women's sealskin artistry. We worked with three seamstress artisans:  Ruth Sangoya, Paomee Komangapik and Koopa Kippomee. These women generously agreed to share their knowledge. On this channel is a series of clips, short films, and photo essays of sealskin kamik-making, mitten-making, and processing.   Any comments or feedback would be much appreciated.  Thanks!
