Who can apply? 


If you work with printmaking as part of your artistry and were born in 1985 or later, you can apply for the grant. There are no requirements regarding educational or other formal credentials. You must be active in Sweden. 
 

Selection criteria


In order to be considered for the grant, printmaking techniques of some kind must play a central role in your art practice. Today, printmaking is a field of incredible breadth, including everything from graphic prints and artists’ books to 3D graphics and monumental graphics for house façades. All graphic techniques are valued equally, alongside all conceivable work processes where some type of graphic technique is an essential aspect. The jury’s assessment will be made exclusively on the basis of the work samples you submit and the written document in which you describe your work process.
