The 2022 Nobel Prize as Fashion
01 December 2022
This year, first-year fashion students have created free interpretations of the 2022 Nobel Prize based on the criterion "wearable festive clothes". Until 26 February 2023, the works will be on display in the Nobel Creations exhibition at the Nobel Prize Museum in Stockholm.
"Creating creations based on the Nobel Prizes is an artistic challenge, to combine content and product design in a design. This year, the students have interpreted the laureates symbolically and poetically. Through rigorous stylisations, they have worked methodically to portray abstract concepts such as contradiction and balance, spiral movements, quantum states, feelings of shame, courage and freedom, struggles for human rights and abuse of power," says Elisabet Yanagisawa, course coordinator in fashion design at Beckmans.
