We encourage all with an interest or experience in curating concerning dáidda, duodji, yoik, story-telling and other areas, and their interconnectedness to land, to apply for this once in a lifetime opportunity. This includes a programme of visits as well as discussions on the possibilities of curating as defined from a Sámi perspective, at one of the largest art happenings internationally.

Please send a short application with a motivational letter on the possibilities of curating to empower Sámi worldviews along with your CV to: venezia@samidaiddaguovddas.no
