Expanding Terrains: Konstfack Masters of Craft graduates

The Grid structure as a recurring element throughout art history plays a crucial role in the work of Amanda Nordqvist. Through a set of textile paintings, she experiments and dissects colour in different consistencies, relating to questions of image construction and transformative qualities. Nordqvist’s work is a visually striking blend of craft practice, visual culture and painting tradition. 

Craft as a medium is used in Sundström’s practice to connect with nature and dissolve human-non-human hierarchies. Her work features site-specific ritualistic performance; immersion in landscapes and water. She treats materials and landscape with meditative gentle care; a process of making and recording, her way to interpret the human’s place within the natural world.

Questioning the boundaries of the contemporary jewellery field, Muráriková’s project intertwines jewellery, fine art and sound. A cocktail of disciplines leans on each other to create an installation with jewellery quietly at the core. Alluring, tactile materials and textures engage the senses and invite a placement of the body within the installation.

Using vintage glass moulds from Reijmyre Glassworks, Nossbring’s work manages to merge tradition with humor and personal history. Reproduced and reassembled glass figurines from the factory’s production are an insightful reflection of the investigation of one’s memories and identity. The colorful glossy characters are speculative depictions of events that might or might not have happened.
