the artist-architect joar nango is a member of the sami people, an indigenous group from the north of norway and sweden. he creates site-specific installations and self-made publications that explore indigenous perspectives via contemporary architecture. there's an archival window called skievvarcoolli, designed and built by oceangoing sami people out of dried halibut stomachs spanning wooden frames. for the biennial, nango's creative team developed a progotype for a new kind of window screen using this old technology.
