UTANVEGAR

Tinna Gunnarsdóttir professor at the IUA and a product designer will give a lunch lecture as a part of the lecture series Sneiðmynd, Wednesday the 16th of October at 12:15. The lecture will be in lecture-hall A at the Department of Design and Architecture, Þverholt 11.
Tinna has been a freelance designer since 1992 when she graduated with a BA degree in three-dimensional design from WSCAD, UK. In 1997 she finished an MA degree in industrial design from Domus Academy, Italy and a Master in Research degree in arts from University of Brighotn, UK. She is currently working on her Ph.D. in cultural studies at the University of Iceland.
In her lecture, Tinna will talk about her own work and the philosophical underpinnings they are based on. In that context, she will speculate about the expanded field of design as well as the agency of objects.
