BANK GALLERI

Written by Fashion Tales

Josefin Zachrisson was born and raised in Söderhamn. After four years of art and design studies, she graduated in 2019 Beckmans School of Design and is today active as an artist and designer with Stockholm as base. She describes her practice as a three-dimensional language in the border country between art and design. With her design language, she wants to communicate feelings, thoughts and ideas. Her way of working is conceptual, experimental and emotional and takes consideration for both impression and use. In addition to their individual work Josefin is also part of the art and design collective Swedish Girls.

No(n)sense

Functional sculptures in aluminum

In this project I have studied three-dimensional design in a digital and physical context. In the borderland in between I have sought to find a method and an approach that will enable me and my intuitive and material-focused process to function. A method that brings new ways for designers to work and that can also create a new approach to design.

No(n)sense is a concept, a process and multiple feelings in varying dimensions. The physical result is a tray and a chair in sand-casted aluminum, designed
trough an animated and virtual process focusing on physical material. The concept is about what you feel when you interact and don’t interact with form, material and resistance.

Mess

Functional glassware

A state of mind translated into glass 

Mess is a series of glassware created through a mixture of feelings. Every object is unique and made in Småland, Sweden. The process of making ‘Mess’ is intuitive and requires at least two experienced glass blowers apart from myself. The glass blowers who I made this first edition together with has been working with glass for 45 years. With Mess I want to examine how material can make you feel, making you want to physically feel it but also encourages you to reflect on feelings through observation.

Seats is a sculptural, multi-seated piece of furniture, with a backrest reimagined as additional seating.The comfort level is adapted to shorter periods of sitting in a public environment. The modular construction opens up for the possibility of different types of usage. It is a piece of furniture that inspires the flow of a space
