Bjรถrn is a fashion artist and academic with an extraordinary journey. Growing up on a moonlit farm in Sweden surrounded by sheep, bunnies, and chickens, he embraced creativity early. His path has taken him from textile design in Melbourne to tech-textile startups in London, fairtrade soft goods manufacturing efforts in Delhi, research in Prague, and fashion exhibitions in his hometown Norrtรคlje.
With a MFA in Design from HDK-Valand in Gothenburg and as a current PhD candidate at UTS Sydney, Bjรถrn explores the fascinating intersection of fashion, sustainability, and AI. His work bridges innovation, culture, and sustainabilityโperfectly aligned with this yearโs theme, "๐๐ผ๐ ๐๐ผ ๐บ๐ฎ๐ธ๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ป ๐๐บ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐?"
