Andrea Sundt is a Norwegian artist and costume designer whose practice creates connections between the visual and the performative. Rooted in a background in theatre and film, her work explores the relationship between narrative, material, and transformation.

Raised in Oslo, she studied Costume Design at Esmod Oslo and Paris (2007) before completing a BFA in Fine Art at Parsons School of Design, New York (2014). Her years abroad — in Paris, New York, and Bermuda — continue to inform a sensibility shaped by movement, language, and cultural translation.

Andrea made her film debut designing costumes for Even Benestad’s Tempus Fugit (Bergen), followed by collaborations on a number of international productions, including Anja Marquardt’s She’s Lost Control (New York), and Lucinda Spurling’s Maternal Secrets, filmed entirely in Bermuda.

In her visual art practice her large-scale paper installations evoke the tactile and ephemeral qualities of costume, gesture, and text. These works have been shown in New York, Bermuda and Cuba, including at the Bermuda National Gallery Biennials (2016, 2018, 2020) and Detrás del Muro at the Havana Biennial (2019).

Her current body of work engages with language as form — reimagining appropriated texts through translation systems such as the Elder Futhark runic alphabet and distilled abstract compositions on plywood. In these works, language becomes texture, code, and rhythm — a visual field where meaning both conceals and reveals itself.
