In Berlin and Stockholm, I am currently working on the short stories that are to be a substantial part of my MA thesis project when graduating from Konstfack´s critical writing & curatorial practice program this May.
They´ll be presented to the visitors of our Graduate Show, Vårutställningen, in the form of a book I´m developing in collaboration with fellow Konstfackers Clara Terne and Christian Brandt (Graphic Design/Illustration MA) - an extremely gifted duo who join me out of pure enthousiasm and in spite of already busy schedules. Thanks, guys, looking forward to these months!
The Vårutställningen, opening on May 12th, might expect an even higher number of visitors than usual this year, due to the two media upheavals about Konstfack students who, independent of one another, have been reported to the police for faking a suicide attempt in public and publishing a manic graffiti spree, respectively:

All pr is good pr, as the number of new applicants to Konstfack will probaby show before long.
