We’re ✨soooo happy ✨about this last journey, collecting materials, images and impressions for the grand finale of the hephaestuscraft
We returned to the ecosystems of Dals Långed/Fengersfors and Bornholm, to places that, trip after trip, have become more and more familiar. It felt a little like meeting old friends again, while still discovering something new.
The journey ended in Copenhagen, where we shared our experience during a seminar at Copenhagen Business School , organised by our colleagues. It was emotional to stop for a moment, look back at the work we’ve done together, and share an experience that has been with us for such a long time.
Thank you to everyone who has shared this adventure with us. ❤️Nynne Rosenkrantz Christiansen Heidi Hentze Rebbie Preston Margot Bustamante S Enrico Macciò Priya Kholi Marta Gasparin Lea Janna Alice Kettle Alberto Scodro Lukas Arons Karl Hallberg biba_sj Rob Curran Linnea Dalstrand Elena Raviola

𝐏𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐚 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 — 𝐝𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐞𝐱𝐡𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞! Brave New World invites you to imagine a future shaped not by mass production, but by the values of craftsmanship. It envisions a slower, more mindful society where resources, production, and daily life follow materially aware principles — prompting us to rethink how such a shift could transform politics, the environment, education, and everyday living.

Created in dialogue with researchers from the Hephaestuscraft.eu project, the exhibition uses artificial creativity to bring this speculative world to life, offering new perspectives and possibilities through a curated set of visual “postcards.”

👏 You have again amazing opportunity to see the thought-provoking exhibition: "𝗔 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱", by D20 ART LAB.

This time at Röhsska museet, Gothenburg, Sweden.

Visit the exhibition until June 4, 2025. What would the world look like if we followed craftsmanship principles instead of mass production? D20 Art Lab explores this by contrasting a sustainable, craftsmanship-based future with the unsustainable industrial model, using AI and artisanal sketches to imagine such a world.
