Sigrún Gyða (b. 1993, Reykjavík) is a filmmaker, classical singer, composer and visual artist. Her practice seeks to capture the performative self as a mythical mode to reflect on femininity, body labour and time. Sigrún’s work focuses on different social groups, cultures and classes where it takes shape in either an installation, film or a composition. Sigrún lives and works in Reykjavík and Amsterdam where she graduated with a MA in fine arts and design in 2021 from Sandberg Instituut. She has also completed a professional level in classical singing and music studies as well as a BA in fine arts from Iceland University of the arts.
