Duodji som alternativ till heminredning—Katarina Spik Skum ställer ut på Samegården

Katarina Spik Skum is showing her work at the Sámi museum at Samegården. With roots in the Lule Sámi tradition, inspired by life in the tipi with her mother’s family during her childhood summers, Spik Skum has made textiles, pillows, banners and more. At the same time, she lets modern materials and shapes seep in. It is about duodji, Sámi craft, as an alternative to home décor.

Spik Skum lives and works in Jåhkåmåhkke/Jokkmokk and has a master’s degree in duodji from Sámi allaskuvla in Guovdageaidnu/Kautokeino.
The exhibition will be shown from 12 February-31 December 2025. Open 9:00-15:00 Monday-Friday.

The museum is run by Kiruna Sámi association and is found in the bottom floor of Samegården at Brytaregatan 14, 981 34 Kiruna.

The exhibition is part of Katarina Spik Skum’s exhibition The Living Room—An Installation by Katarina Spik Skum at Kin Museum of Contemporary Art. It is a collaboration between Kiruna Sámi Association and Kin.
