Thomas Whiteley

Thomas Whiteley is a printmaker based in Kuujjuaq, QC. Though he always had an interest in art, it was only in 2024 that he began devoting himself more seriously to printmaking. After attending a three-week-long training with professional artist Nadine Bariteau in Kuujjuaq, he acquired additional tools and techniques to develop his art practice. Since then, Whiteley has created a great number of prints. His work has been displayed in many galleries, such as Tivi Gallery (Kuujjuaq), La Guilde (Montreal) and Campbell River Art Gallery (B.C.), and is part of an institutional collection. In 2025, he was also the recipient of the Canada Arts Council Grant. His work as a pilot for Air Inuit continues to fuel his artistic inspiration by offering him a unique perspective on northern landscapes and Inuit culture. Today, Whiteley specializes in woodcut engraving and linocutting. He remains dedicated to representing his northern way of life, modern Inuit culture, and his relationship with the land and animals.
