Catalogue: Bruno Mathsson Prize 2021
In 2021, Swedish designer Mönica Forster was awarded the prestigious annual Bruno Mathsson Prize. Her achievement was marked with an exhibition of her work at Vandalorum museum. Alongside writer Gustaf Kjellin, I was commissioned to write an essay in the exhibition catalogue, exploring Mönica’s international reach throughout her career.
The catalogue is available to visitors of the exhibition, running at Vandalorum from 20th November 2021 until 18th April 2022.

Cecilia then asked me to cook something with it – I opted for a humble yet nutrient-laden vegetable stock, instructions included.
