A mapping of women in the ArkDes collection through signatures, archives, and narratives.<\/p>\n

Frida Nerdal is an architect who runs her own practice within architecture, research, and writing, with a particular focus on women in architectural history. In her graduation project, she examined the overlooked architect Elsa Sundling, resulting in the book Arkitekt Elsa Sundling – Av lust och ohejdad vana<\/em> (Balkong Förlag, 2020).<\/p>\n

In the autumn of 2021, Nerdal was a guest researcher at ArkDes, where she studied objects in the collection related to women, trans, and non-binary individuals. The research centred on a broad mapping of women represented in the collection – from those with their own archival material, to those whose signatures appear on drawings in other collections, and those mentioned in published texts.<\/p>\n

Nerdal’s research has informed several thematic strands in the exhibition ArkDes Collection<\/em>, and has also paved the way for further investigations, such as Marisa Cortright’s research (guest researcher 2023).<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n

About the Guest Researcher Program<\/h2>\n \n

Since 2021, ArkDes has hosted guest researchers for short-term residencies of three to six months, focusing on specific questions related to the ArkDes collection. The aim of the program is to introduce a wider range of perspectives into the ongoing research on the collection and to make academic knowledge more accessible to the public.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n

Research Outcomes<\/h2>\n \n

The outcomes of several guest researcher projects have shaped and enriched the exhibition ArkDes Collectio<\/em>n<\/a>, which opened in 2024. The exhibition is updated annually with new original objects, and research conducted through the Guest Researcher Program can influence both its themes and content.<\/p>\n

Guest researchers also share their work through public events and an annual research conference hosted by ArkDes. Calls for new guest researchers are announced annually, typically during the spring semester.<\/p>\n
