Description
I work 50% as a teacher in graphic design at the BA program in Graphic design and illustration and teach courses that deal with e.g. publishing, magazine design, art direction and typography. I am especially interested in the relationship between publication and performance, and how the body is part of design processes. I am also very interested in graphic design history, and how technological changes affect the professional role and the field of 'graphic design'. Outside of my 50% at Konstfack I run my own practice where I do graphic design commissions, write, and do research projects. I run a cultural space called Munnen in Bagarmossen, edit the cultural magazine Girls Like Us, and carry out research projects in the collective MMS. My practice is supported by a feminist, queer, decolonial and materialist theoretical and practice-based framework.
