Born in Norway, Máret Ánne Sara is a prominent Sámi artist and author whose practice is deeply rooted in the traditions and contemporary struggles of the Sámi people. Her work often serves as a form of visual activism, drawing attention to the intersection of Indigenous rights, land use, and environmental policy.
Her signature installations frequently incorporate organic materials such as reindeer hides, bones, and antlers, often juxtaposed with industrial or modern elements to highlight the tension between traditional livelihoods and state-imposed regulations. Her work is characterized by its monumental scale and its ability to translate complex socio-political narratives into visceral, site-specific experiences.
Sara has gained significant international recognition for her contributions to contemporary art, most notably through her 2025 Hyundai Commission at the Tate Modern. Her installation Goavve-Geabbil, which utilizes reindeer hides and electrical cables, underscores her ongoing commitment to exploring the anatomy and cultural significance of the reindeer within the Sámi landscape.
