Glenn Gear is a Montreal, QC-based animator, filmmaker and visual artist hailing from Corner Brook, Newfoundland. Gear finds inspiration by exploring his identity as an urban Inuk with ancestral ties to Nunatsiavut. Gear’s work often explores his ancestral ties to Nunatsiavut, creating alternative forms of storytelling through animation, archives, collage, installation, painting, and sound. His work also navigates the complex relationships between people, animals, and land, imbuing these shared spaces with humour, mystery, and hope. His films have screened throughout Canada and around the world. When not making new artwork, Gear facilitates workshops in animation production for Indigenous youth.
