ABOUT THE WORKSHOP SPEAKER
Taalrumiq is not only the name of her label, business and social media channels, but her traditional Inuit name, used in her professional work. As a contemporary Canadian Indigenous Fashion Designer, Taalrumiq, (english name Christina Gruben King), shares Inuvialuit culture with the world through creating meaningful couture pieces, garments and accessories, incorporating traditional designs with a contemporary vision, each piece with a story to tell. Using the same skills, talent and passion inherited from her long matrilineal line of expert Inuit Seamstresses and Gwich'in Jijuu, what was once necessary for survival is now not solely for survival but cultural preservation, reclaiming and taking pride in Indigenous identity, storytelling and creative expression. Inuvialuit culture and history from an Inuvialuit perspective.
