This paper presents fieldwork done in July 2012 in the village of Kangiqsujuaq in Nunavik (North Quebec), in the framework of a research project on Inuit imagibility. The project was carried through in agreement with the municipality of Kangiqsujuaq and involved about ten inhabitants who chose to comment some photos from their family albums. The 35 photos chosen by them were scanned and deposited at the Avataq Cultural Institute in Montreal, with the aim of protecting them and to preserve this «ordinary» photographic heritage. The photos have been enlarged and shown as an exhibition in the village so that they can contribute to the transmission between generations of memories of the group as well as families and individuals. The main objective of the project is to take into account the viewpoint of the inhabitants, which will allow to obtain a more appropriate representation of the territory. It remains to be seen whether this small photographic heritage might be integrated into the museographic setting of interpretation centers, such as the centre, situated in this village, of the Pingualuit Park that is presented as the touristic icon of Nunavik.

La spécificité de Puvirnituq repose surtout sur l'importance de son patrimoine culturel, notamment son rôle pionnier dans la genèse du mouvement des coopératives avec la vente de sculptures à la fin des années 1950 ainsi que sa position résolument dissidente depuis la fin des années 1970. Les négociations qui ont cours en ce moment visant une autonomie du Nunavik en 2010 pourraient lui permettre de jouer un rôle administratif important, même si Kuujjuaq, l'autre grande communauté inuite du Nunavik, est pour l'heure plutôt pressentie pour devenir la capitale de cette nouvelle région.
