Talk
Chapter 1: Practice
March 26th 2022
Matilda Tjäder is a Swedish visual and performance artist, whose multidisciplinary practice builds imaginary worlds through sound, performance, and moving image. In her work, Matilda develops experimental environments where the familiar interfaces with the unknown, the individual with the collective, politics with fiction, and memories with the absence of sentience.
Matilda Tjäder gave a talk on March 26th 2022, for the Symposium day of the Post Design Tangle, Chapter 1, which had the theme Practice. It took place at Beckmans College of Design in Stockholm, Sweden.
