Huge day today. I have just been granted an one year artistic scholarship from the Swedish Arts Grants Committee (Konstnärsnämnden). Can´t explain how much it means to me, especially due to my current situation. But with this working grant I can realize some dreams and thoughts that have been running around in my mind lately.
The Swedish Arts Grants Committee (Konstnärsnämnden) is a government agency. Our function is to support artists who work within the areas of visual art, design, music, dance, theatre, and film. We award grants and allowances and promote international cultural exchange. In addition, we compile information on the financial and social conditions of artists.
