More information

During her work on the project “3 to 5 Seconds – Rapid Handmade Production” in 2014, Jenny Nordberg researched antique mirror production. The process and the result were captivating, and since then Nordberg has continued to work with this old method of making mirrors. The process used has its roots in the 19th century and results in a thin layer of silver (Ag) on the surface of the glass. As the entire surface of the glass is not covered, each mirror is unique due to the uncontrollable liquids involved in the manufacturing process.

More about Jenny Nordberg

Jenny Nordberg is an industrial designer (MFA) based in Skåne. Nordberg works exploratively and interdisciplinarily to expand the contemporary view of design and the role of the designer. Whether it involves an experimental, conceptual, or commercial project, she is driven by a quest for alternatives to and strategies against irresponsible mass production. Stylistically, her works are characterised by a keen combination of brutalism and minimalism, often with humour and chance as important elements. Jenny Nordberg's work, which operates in the field between design and art, focuses on how we produce and consume today, how we have done so historically, and how this can be done differently in the future. By exploring questions like these, Nordberg aims to change the conditions of the design field and encourage designers to take a more engaged stance.
