Sandra Nyberg works with various mediums ranging from architecturally inspired site-specific structures and installations to fragile drawings and conceptual ideas. She is specifically interested in the idea of site-specific and public intervention; creating works that are integrated with their surroundings while exploring local cultural, political, sociological and/or historical contexts.
