{"id":25,"count":14,"description":"The subjects our students explore in Graphic Design and Illustration are collectively referred to as \u2019visual communication\u2019. The second part of the term makes it clear that it is about something being conveyed. <br><br>\r\n\r\nAn unusually large number of this year\u2019s degree projects can be read as a form of dialogue. There is an exchange and an explorative approach \u2013 not just a presentation of pre-packaged thoughts, opinions and experiences. The participants and forms of the dialogue vary. Some of this year\u2019s works explore current and weighty topics. Here is a collective story about migrants\u2019 experiences of dual citizenship, of racism and deportations. Here is a playful dialogue with a historical diary \u2013 once written by the author and trans activist Lou Sullivan. The work amplifies a voice that advocated for queer rights, a fight that is still necessary. And even in conversations about something as mundane as the concept of \u2018comfort food\u2019, doors are opened to experiences with burning resonance. <br><br>\r\n\r\nKonstfack\u2019s Degree Exhibition 2026 also invites exchanges with representatives of the non-human in the form of beings and nature. Here are dragons, demons, trolls and ghostly horses \u2013 even the wind itself. Here are works that reflect personal experiences, and also how difficult it can be to navigate the unwritten social rules that surround all conversations. <br><br>\r\n\r\nSome of the degree projects are lyrically contemplative, others hypervisual and maximalist. All have something to say. They reflect aspects of our time and thereby help us perceive it more clearly. <br><br>\r\n\r\nJ\u00f6ns Mellgren<br>\r\nLecturer and Programme Coordinator in Graphic Design and Illustration","link":"https:\/\/konstfack2026.se\/en\/category\/bachelor\/ba-gdi\/","name":"Graphic Design and Illustration","slug":"ba-gdi","taxonomy":"category","parent":7,"meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/konstfack2026.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories\/25","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/konstfack2026.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/konstfack2026.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/category"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/konstfack2026.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories\/7"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/konstfack2026.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts?categories=25"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
