SORGENFRI ARTWEAR EXHIBITION X OSLO FUSION FESTIVAL - AUGUST 2021

Sorgenfri is a multi-level shop-space and concept gallery in Oslo, curating art and design. The space regularly introduces artists that fit into a Scandinavian and sustainable context, offering long-living design products and one-of-a-kind pieces from the world’s archive as a reaction to today’s ‘fast fashion’. Sorgenfri also initiates collaborations between artists and leading brands to unite and create limited edition collaborative products.  

The exhibition concept Sorgenfri Artwear was launched as a new branch under Oslo Fushion Festival, showcasing designers working at the intersection of fashion and art, and highlighting voices within slow fashion.

The Sorgenfri Artwear exhibition corresponds to this shift by exploring the crossing between art and fashion. Working to achieve a more knowledgeable, nuanced and sustainable industry with a bigger focus on business, ethics and the craft. Pursuing the fact that a garment can also be seen as an object of the arts.
