Johanna Grigarová is a free spirit with her own distinctive and authentic aesthetics.
Solidarity and anti-racism is significant for multidisciplinary artist Karin Kakan Hermansson’s distinctive, lovable personality. Her works are often commentaries on topics such as feminism, sexuality, identity and politics. Her interests also include the associations between craft, social identity and taste as a signal of social status. “Everyone has a relationship with craftsmanship.” Hermansson was born in Lund in 1981 and has lived in Stockholm for 20 years. She is educated at Konstfack (University of Arts, Crafts and Design), Ceramics and Glass 2006-2012, where she has been teaching as an assistant professor for 9 years.
Hermansson describes the exhibition as an excursion, an excavation, which carries historical references, idols and the artist herself.
The Exhibition Very Traditional will show at Fine Little Day Gallery 23/3 – 28/4, 2024.
"Grigarová’s work embellishes and enhances textiles in a very immediate, sensual fashion. The skillfully made creations and visually surrounding contexts are often wild and involve elements of narratives, with almost mystical qualities. We praise Grigarová’s work and have appointed her to be the first one to receive the Fine Little Day Art Award".
"Ushyté is a way for me to join minimal shape, wearability and print all into one design. A design that is light, universal and with a touch of femininity, combined with details that give the clothing distinctive characteristic. It is everything that I love to wear and everything that makes me feel unique. Ushyté is my world and you are a part of it as well".
