Sandra Vaka (b. 1980) is a Norwegian artist working with sculpture, installation, and both analog and digital photography. Her work explores the expectations and conditions of living in a world saturated with products and technology. Vaka investigates themes of desire, consumption, pleasure, and shame, examining how these forces shape contemporary consumer society while also addressing personal responses to the climate crisis. Her practice combines humor with seriousness, using everyday objects—such as towels, straws, and computer screens—as points of departure to explore the intimate relationship between bodies, material culture, and technology.

Vaka holds an MFA from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen and a BA from the Oslo National Academy of the Arts. Recent exhibitions include a City Project for Stavanger Secession 2026; Ripples at QB Gallery; Circulation at BGE Contemporary Art Project 2025; Stavanger Secession 2024 at TOU Ølhallene; Cerulean: The Language of Color at Galleri Golsa 2024; Suck In, Breathe Out at QB Gallery 2023; Swimming Pool – Troubled Waters at Künstlerhaus Bethanien 2021; In the Clouds at Stavanger Art Museum 2020; and Suge at Kunsthall Stavanger 2019.

Her work is included in both public and private collections, and as public art commissions. In addition to her practice, Vaka also works as a curator, art consultant and serves on boards.
