For my degree project, I’ve been exploring how to sculpt with rope made of second-hand fabrics. What started as a manual, meditative process of making twine and sewing small objects by hand, has escalated into making thick textile yarn containing four different strands with the help of a drill. A small, ornamental shape has grown… Continue reading Karina Nøkleby Presttun

I use knitting as my main technique as well as a method of research in my practice. Knitting, so to speak, is a mode of both making and thinking. A single strand of yarn becomes multiple stitches, making a loop after another. The very architecture of a knitted surface opposes singularity, and opens up potential… Continue reading Bogil Lee

By emphasising bodily… Continue reading Ciara Neufeldt

My degree project consists of five different pieces that explore diverse universal topics such as religion, love and cultural identity. The artworks are intended to be a meeting point where the personal experiences of the author intersect with the aim of making the public relate/empathise with them. This concept gives the name to the project,… Continue reading Mariona Miquel Ros

Body Electric is a gaze beyond the preconceived framework of the human body. It portrays the poetry of being a complex machine made of flesh. The idea of leaking and absorption between bodies and objects as an organ in itself is visualised through jewellery influenced by prosthetics, contemplating a new idea of a body and… Continue reading Judit Fritz
