Anders Sunna

Börje Karl Anders Sunna (born 11 April 1985) is a Swedish Sámi artist known for incorporating a strong political point of view into his artwork.

Sunna was born in the Jukkasjärvi parish of Kiruna, Norrbotten County, Sweden.

Sunna's art is political, often focusing on Sámi history and his family's long-standing conflict with the county administrative board's reindeer husbandry delegation.

[1] In his work, Sunna uses thick layers of color, graffiti techniques, collage, and prints with motifs depicting oppression of the Sámi, including forced relocations and photographs from the Swedish State Institute for Racial Biology.

[6] Sunna is one of the artists representing Sápmi in the Nordic pavilion during the 2022 Venice Biennale.
