We travel to the Arctic landscapes of Sápmi to meet Máret Ánne Sara, a Sámi artist from a reindeer herding family. The reindeer is a cornerstone of Sámi culture, which recognises the interdependence and intrinsic value of all living beings.
For the 2025 Hyundai Commission, Sara has created a multisensory installation entitled Goavve-Geabbil. It combines hides, bones and wood derived from reindeer herding practices with industrial materials, sound and scent, to reflect on the destruction of ecosystems, and the erosion of Sámi culture due to mining and energy developments in Sápmi.
Through Indigenous philosophy and science, Sara invites us all to reconsider our perception of ourselves as a single species in an interconnected world.
