Multi-talented artist Alexis Vollant hails from the Innu community of Pessamit, in the Côte-Nord region of Québec.

Nipinapunan

Innu word. "Where one spends summertime"

Banner from the Nipinapunan cover of Alexis' first book. Used with permission.

Nipinapunan presents the inner voice of a young Innu woman from Pessamit who finally got convinced by her Montreal boyfriend to spend an entire summer in her home community, where they can swim in the “folklore” and “exoticism” of an indigenous village. The love for the language, the land, for roots and feelings towards a loved one are intrically intertwined, just like everything that comes in their way.
