Congratulations Alina Rentsch (Fine Art) and Sofia Priftis (Spatial Design)! Through a unique partnership with 11 international institutions from seven countries, the Octopus Programme has selected 10 outstanding artists to take part in the programme during the academic year 2021/2022. From a rigorous, multi-institutional application process with five interconnected evaluation committees, the winn
Soil-on-to-logic is a proposal for long term engagement, a time for speculation, a refusal of binary formations and most probably a space for (un)learning in public. It’s a sneaking suspicion following me, of what it means to be a creator? The creator of something. What is produced in these hands and what is reproduced in common sphere?
I believe I am disconnected from the land. I have turned my gaze to my origin and access. I collect and work with material from my home area: a rural environment with agriculture and forest industry. I paint with pigments that I have made from dye plants I cultivate and harvest each year, make paper sheets of old newspapers, and build frames with wood felled by an arborist.
Madeleine Hertz’s work revolves around spatial interventions of the places we inhabit, connected to structural ideas of certain environments interpreted through architectural conceptualizations such as form and function.
Jimmy Robert, born 1975 in Guadeloupe (France), lives and works in Berlin. He works with diverse media including photography, collages, objects, art books, short films and performance art. In his explorations into the relationship between images and objects, Robert draws attention to the dynamics of different surfaces.
The exhibition shows a new work that explores the relations that Alkateeb have been reconstructing in their installations since 2012. This installation “Here ... Now” is one step in a changing relationship, one piece in a continuing series.
Zoom on 17 February, at 6.00-7.30 pm

Erik Viklund's work is inspired by places and encounters with people and their destinies in these locations. Utilizing photography, he is interested in approaching the transient, but also how the transient is expressed in our lives in a purely physical way from one place to another; on a found piece of paper, a broken window or the torn down wallpaper in a house that has been deserted.
Frågor om klass, kön, ras, ålder och utseende, är ständigt närvarande i mina verk och här finns ofta ett ifrågasättande av en etablerad position eller roll. Jag förhåller mig ofta symboliskt och i mina skulpturer ligger fokus på fördelningen av massa i kroppar, menar Camilla Akraka.
In a turbulent world, where does the next generation of designers look for purpose? Do they dare to try alternative ways of problem solving and creation in order to reach sustainable paths forward? Actions, failures and explorations have all been embraced in this course, where students at Konstfack’s Industrial Design programme have been free to explore an inquiry of their choice.
In the exhibition Dis-played you meet objects that play with the possibilities of craftmanship, utility and expression. We invite you to a fantasy that is greater than the possibilities and that is displayed for everyone to take part in.

In the old days it was important to keep the fire in your fireplace burning. As the main light and heating source, it was also how you kept the (evil) spirits from entering your home and bringing misfortune. The fire signalled human presence.
An amazing week is planned and many events are open to the public. Join in, have fun, spread the news and see you in the virtual realm!
Jessica Hemmings is revisiting a number of personal interests that have gained increasing importance to her own thinking in recent years: academic silence surrounding failure; the value of solitary thinking in the midst of our current collaborative era; and a newfound enthusiasm she has for the importance of small research claims.
Konstfack Art Department Lecture Series presents Amy Sillman who will give a newly written talk on her "principles for painting" which can also be said to be an "ethics of tactility".
