CRAFTY MIDSUMMER
My bachelor's project at Konstfack 2021 was a textile representation of the Midsummer day. In the work, I have createdsculptures and a film, where I artistically examine the aesthetics and the rituals of Midsummer Day

I have celebrated midsummer every year without really reflecting on why we celebrate midsummer in Sweden. What does the holiday stand for? What is my relationship with midsummer? How can you portray the holiday through textiles?
