Research Lab CRAFT! 2025 warmly invites you to celebrate the release of our publication A Living Practice. Over the past year Victoria Cleverby, Tova Fransson, Heather Jones, Ever Lavén, Lisa Rydell, Lisa Sander and Ida Isak Westerberg have approached artistic research not as a linear path toward a conclusion, but as an ongoing event – a living practice.
