So this has been a crazy year in many ways, and we are so ready to leave 2020 behind and focus on the future. BUT for what it’s worth here comes a 2020 closing from the studio.
•
This year has included collaborations with Nya Kompisbyrån, Albert Bonniers förlag, Natur & Kultur, Unga Klara (of course), SVT/Therese Elfstrand, Kvinnohistoriska/Womens History Museum, Swedish Film Institute, Incitament, Bildningspodden and Creative News.
•
2020 has also included the start of an artistic research projekt (much more to come) - and the lecture The Standards We Have Been Thought are Not Universal has taken me to HDK Valand, FHNW Academy of Art and Design in Basel, Zound Industries, Stockholm University of Arts, Södertörn University and Konstfack University of Arts Crafts and Design (of course).
•
I’m beyond grateful for all collaborations this year. BIG thanks to all of you! TO BE CONTINUED…

Happy to be invited to the podcast Incitament (on Spotify) - for a conversation about graphic design through my practice - looking at the past, present and future. An hour of conversation has been cut down to 25 minutes 😱😨 + do not miss previous conversations with, among others, Jenny Wilson, Suzanne Osten, Sara Parkman and Tone Schunnesson!

"Incitament is a culture podcast that presents a series of interviews with some of Sweden’s most meaningful, interesting and influential cultural producers. Conversations circle around questions of creative production, identity and the professional practices of diverse disciplines."

CAP&Design - in conversation about what is not given space in relation to trends within visual communication. (In swedish.)

Parasto Backman är grafisk formgivare och lektor på Konstfack. Vi träffade henne för att prata trender inom visuell kommunikation – men landade i en omvärldsspaning.
