Joar Nango is an architect and artist based in Romsa/Tromsø. His work is rooted in Sápmi – the traditional Sámi territory covering the northern regions of Norway, Sweden, Finland and the Kola Peninsula in Russia. Through building, site-specific interventions, design collaborations, photography, publications and video, Nango’s work explores the role of Sámi and Indigenous architecture and craft in contemporary thought.

Fort his lecture, Nango will present his latest projects, exhibitions, and collaborations, including  his long-term project Girjegumpi: The Sámi Architecture Library, that was presented at the Venice Architecture Biennale in 2023, and whose goahti structure is currently on display at the ArkDes Collection exhibition.

The lecture will be  followed by a conversation betweeen Joar Nango and Carlos Mínguez Carrasco, Chief Curator at ArkDes.
