TRUE CRIME CRAFTS

2023

Finnish design fabrics

True Crime Crafts is an assemblage of things from different Finnish crime scenes. These objects form a kind of arranged clues, a composite visual evidence and symbol of the crimes that were committed. The choice of textile materials represents a domestic sphere that everyone can relate to. Fabrics are worn on our bodies and found at home – a supposedly safe place where nevertheless most violent crimes are committed.
