Bringing the Art of Climate into our everyday existence.

Sarah Cameron Sunde has been invited to present her work and speak in numerous venues for the last 21 years. Her interdisciplinary works, including 36.5 / A Durational Peformance with the Sea, translate people’s abstract idea of climate change into concrete embodied understanding. Her work has also been the subject of many essays and talks by leading scholars.  She is also widely considered the American expert on Nobel Prize winner, Jon Fosse’s theatrical texts, and speaks regularly on translating and directing this Norwegian literary giant into the American Theater.
