2023 RAIC Awards: Towards Home

ᐊᖏᕐᕋᒧᑦ / Ruovttu Guvlui / Towards Home is an Indigenous-led exhibition and publication project that explores how Inuit, Sámi, and other communities across the Arctic are creating self-determined spaces. (angirramut) in Inuktitut or ruovttu guvlui in Sámi means “towards home.” To move towards home is to reflect on where Inuit and Sámi people find home, on what their connections to their lands mean, and on what those relationships could look like moving into the future.

The project encompasses experiences and understandings of past, present, and future homes across Inuit Nunangat and Sápmi. ᐊᖏᕐᕋᒧᑦ / Ruovttu Guvlui / Towards Home proceeds through a series of open and future-oriented questions to explore what it means for Indigenous peoples to design with the land.

Embedded within the project is the Futurecasting: Indigenous-led Architecture and Design workshop, which gathers nine emerging designers, from across the Canadian part of Turtle Island and Sápmi, to reflect on and to shape the future of Indigenous-led design.
