Over five decades, she has created a rich and poetic narrative about the S\u00e1mi, the only recognized Indigenous people on the European continent, and their struggle for land and culture.<\/p>\n<p>Marakatt-Labba was born in 1951 into a reindeer-herding family in A\u0111evuopmi\/Idivuoma. She lives and works in Badje Sohppar\/\u00d6vre Soppero, which, like A\u0111evuopmi, is located in the Giron\/Kiruna municipality on the Swedish side of S\u00e1pmi. Her art has been shaped by her upbringing at the heart of S\u00e1mi culture. From an early age she has worked with duodji, S\u00e1mi handicraft, for example creating g\u00e1kti (traditional S\u00e1mi clothing) and other types of garments from fabric and leather. To this day she dyes her own fabrics and yarns, and in her later works she often combines embroidery, print, and appliqu\u00e9 within the same image.<\/p>\n<p>Marakatt-Labba has worked as an artist since the 1970s and has had a major influence on art in S\u00e1pmi. Since her international breakthrough in 2017 at the contemporary art exhibition Documenta 14 in Kassel, and her participation in the main exhibition of the Venice Biennale in 2022, she has received widespread international attention, and her works are now included in a large number of art collections.<\/p>\n<p>The exhibition is a collaboration between Kiruna Samef\u00f6rening, which operates the S\u00e1mi Museum, and Kin Museum of Contemporary Art, where additional works by Marakatt-Labba are on display.<\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>When:<\/strong> between Wednesday, 18 February and Thursday, 31 December<br><strong>Where:<\/strong> Brytaregatan 14<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>S\u00e1mi everyday life and politics, historical events and mythological scenes\u2014all coexist in the visual world of the acclaimed artist Britta Marakatt-Labba.
