Hanne Bergqvist

My design practice revolves around exploring lost or unknown parts of cultural history, creating narratives and linking past to present. Often taking a research-based approach to my work, I find inspiration in personal stories and niche archives.
I am drawn to representing the domestic, personal and everyday through object-making and craft techniques, often taking cues from existing visual languages to reframe the subject matter in a new context.

Material exploration is a very important part of my work and I am interested in challenging traditional formats, creating tactile experiences where materiality helps craft new narratives.
