Aron Fogelström (b. 1996 - SE/FI) studied film studies at Stockholm University before enrolling at the Royal Institute of Art in 2020. During his final year, ‘24-’25, he was in Tris Vonna-Michell's professor group, prior to which he was in Ming Wong's class. In collaboration with Wong and 5 other artists, he took part in the 11th Seoul Mediacity Biennale with the K-pop band project C-U-T. In 2023, he initiated the group exhibition “Letter from Stockholm” at the Tallinn-located artist-run project space VENT. That same year, while in residency at ZK/U - Center for Art and Urbanistics in Berlin, he deepened his artistic practice towards science fiction linguistics focusing on the German and Swedish languages. Together with Stella Dieden Richter, he is running the platform “Don't Bring an Instrument” to foster artistic exchange on sound-based practices.
