The exhibition space was transformed into a buzzing hub for curious talks and meetings, with the works of our talented students and graduates serving as catalysts for stimulating conversations. Post-human theories were discussed in relation to the evolving relationship between humans and technology, while materiality was explored in terms of the physicality and tactile nature of craft practices. Identity and memory were delved into as artists reflected on their personal narratives and cultural influences, and shifting power structures were examined in the context of craft as a means of challenging traditional hierarchies.
This event was made possible with the support of the Department of Craft! at Konstfack, University of Arts, Crafts and Design, Anders Ljungberg, Kulturrådet, and IASPIS. It was an engaging and enriching experience for all who participated, fostering a dynamic exchange of ideas and perspectives on contemporary craft practices and their broader cultural significance.
