About this episode
Last month, one of this country’s greatest sculptors, David Ruben Piqtoukun, died at age 76. For the renowned Inuvialuk artist from Paulatuk, N.W.T., sculpting was a form of storytelling — a way of sharing stories from his community, as well as making sense of his own story as a residential school survivor. In 2022, he won the Governor General's Award in visual and media arts, and the following year, he joined Tom Power to reflect on his 50-year career. Today, we’re revisiting that conversation in his memory.
