Being a public museum, the Mus\u00e9e national des beaux-arts du Qu\u00e9bec belongs to all the citizens of Quebec. We felt that access to the collection should be available to all the people of Quebec. So we said to ourselves, \u2018Okay, let\u2019s see how far we can go\u2019 […] We had a special attraction to Nunavik.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/div>\n

Works created by the students are hung in the Pierre Lassonde Pavilion over the entrance in the building’s main foyer. A short distance further, they are seen reproduced on a specially designed display. Here, Ivujivik student Velesie Adams has created a series of digital images illustrating the clash between pollution as it impacts the Arctic environment and the traditional activities that the Inuit carry out on the land.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/12″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]
