Britta Marakatt-Labba

For more than forty years, Britta Marakatt-Labba has highlighted Sámi culture and history in embroideries, graphic art, installations, and sculptures. Her embroidered landscapes depict Sámi traditions and everyday life and how the material world coexists with the mythological, but also colonialist abuse and nature threatened by exploitation. Her work is also a significant inspiration for new generations fighting for the environment and the rights of the Sámi people.
