Born in 1992 in Uppsala, Sweden
Lives and works in Stockholm, Sweden
Drawing on her extensive experience in textile practice, Maja Fredin conceives her performative installations as extensions of everyday gestures and choreographies. Blending humour, excess and a kitsch aesthetic, she draws on references to consumerism, food, body image and physical deterioration to create situations that oscillate between irony and discomfort. Her practice turns this tension into a space for critically observing the desires, norms and contradictions that shape contemporary society.
