Evelina Hedin is a curator, writer, and artist living and working outside Uppsala, Sweden. Moving through text and textiles, her practice is rooted in embodied knowledge and its subversive potential, proposing that craft fosters empathetic coexistence. She is particularly interested in the intersection of craft, technology, and biology – exploring how materials, machines, and living systems intertwine in artistic and curatorial processes.

Currently, Evelina works as an international coordinator at Konsthantverkscentrum (The Swedish Crafts Centre), where she initiates and manages international collaborative projects, such as the conference Curating Craft, a Nordic collaboration during Stockholm Craft Week 2023, and Textile Takeover at Scandinavia House in New York in 2024, in collaboration with New York Textile Month. From 2019 to 2021, she was the director of Gustavsbergs Konsthall, an art gallery specializing in contemporary crafts.

She holds an MFA from Konstfack’s master program Textile in the Expanded Field (2012).
