Public presentation of grants to graduating students from the Umeå Academy of Fine Arts in their exhibition Tools for the Future
Tools For The Future marks the end of five years of studies in Fine Arts and a period of intense discussion, research and work. The MFA degree exhibition presents works by Mikaela Crantz, Martin Eltermann, Henrik Haukeland, Irina Laaja, Viktor Mattsson, Line Gry Neivelt, Johanna Robleto, Eleanor Shipway, Richard Guy Slatter, Mathijs Van Sark, Per Westerlund and Josefine Östlund.
Based on their specific interests and personalities, the students have developed independent ways of working.
