In Konsthallen we are showing the exhibition by Anders Sunna, a Swedish Sami artist. The exhibition is about Sami culture, history and politics, but also the relationship between man and nature. We make prints on paper and textile based on various Sami symbols but also experimenting with our own symbols. We also create our own maps and landscapes for people, animals or fantasy worlds where we ourselves decide where the borders are and who lives there. No pre-registration required, free admission.
