Our visual expression is shaped by what we see and experience around us. How are Finland-Swedish and Karelian cultural heritages reflected in the work of a fashion designer? How do childhood surroundings and family culture influence it?

Speakers: designer and researcher Antrea Kantakoski, and fashion designer Peik Westerlund. Moderator: Ane Lynge-Jorlén, Director of the Nordic fashion organisation ALPHA.

The event is supported by the Nordic Culture Fund through ALPHA.

The event is held in English.
