Biography
Charlie Gordon (Saali Kuata) is an emerging circus artist, photographer and filmmaker working between Kuujjuaq, Nunavik, QC, and Montreal, QC. Gordon specializes in performing aerial maneuvers, such as rope-walking and trapeze, stilt walking, acting, juggling and acrobatics. Gordon co-founded the first Nunavik Inuit circus organization Tupiq A.C.T (Arctic Circus Troupe) in August 2018. In addition to performances, his colour and black-and-white photographs present urban landscapes, scenes from nature, memories and personal experiences. He also wrote, directed and created the original music and sound design with Wapikoni Mobile for his first film "Kinauvunga (Who am I?/Who I am)" in 2018.
