The scholarship fund is aimed at young artists working with graphic art. Grafikens hus has managed it since 2021 and celebrates its 30th anniversary this year.

Edith Hammar receives the scholarship for her large-scale works, which “activate the political explosive power of graphic art”. Hannah McDonald also makes large-scale graphic works and is praised for “letting graphic art live on in constant renewal”. Laurens Rohlfs receives the scholarship for “skillfully executed and beautifully presented conceptual and material explorations”.

The awards ceremony was held at Konstnärshuset in Stockholm.
