CRAFTY MIDSUMMER
My bachelor's project at Konstfack (2021) was a textile interpretation of Midsummer Day. Through sculptures and film, I explored the aesthetics and rituals of this tradition in an artistic investigation.
I have celebrated Midsummer every year without deeply considering its significance in Sweden. What does this holiday represent? What is my personal connection to it? And how can its essence be captured through textile art?
