Sandrina Sparagna is a costume designer, multidisciplinary artist, and storyteller from Tiohtià:ke/Montreal. Growing up in a multilingual environment, she has always been fascinated by the expressive power of language—spoken, physical, and written. This curiosity evolved into a love for the visual language of performance, where identity and emotion can live in silence, texture, colour, and solely the rhythm of movement. 

Her approach to costume design is rooted in a background in fine arts, set and lighting design. She is drawn to the interaction between materials and light in costume, and how their dialogue influences space and narrative. She is also informed by her gymnastics training, which brings an understanding of physicality to her work, exploring the playful movement that can arise between performer, character, and costume in the rehearsal space. Sandrina has designed for theatre, dance, film, and opera, with a strong focus on collaboration and sustainable practices. She’s passionate about building global artistic communities and sees design as an ongoing conversation, one that brings together people, cultures, and stories.

She holds a BFA in Theatre Design from Concordia University (2020) and an MFA in Costume Design for Stage and Film from NYU Tisch (2025). She is currently based in New York City.
