"Improvisation and craftsmanship to create unique and unexpected results," ChatGPT. The exhibition is curated by Linus Ersson and is part of Stockholm Craft Week -Sweden's largest event for contemporary crafts.

We improvise and craft to stand against a runaway development in Artificial Intelligence and genetic engineering that is based on and reinforces norms of right and wrong, beautiful and ugly. Linus Ersson invites you to a group exhibition featuring artisans who work abstractly with elements of improvisation or material exploration, where unpredictability is part of the process. A colorful craft kick in the ass to an increasingly polarized, aestheticized, and norm-driven society.
