Mads Andersen (1984) is a graphic designer and visual artist from Bergen, Norway. He holds a BA in visual communication and an MA in design from Bergen Academy of Art and Design (now Faculty of Fine art, Music and Design, KMD at University of Bergen). Currently Mads is partner and graphic designer at PART (www.part.no), where he works primarily with visual communication and art direction in collaboration with clients within the cultural field — developing visual identities, book- and editorial design concepts.

Ingrid Rundberg (1978) is a graphic designer and visual artist born in Åtvidaberg, Sweden, living in Bergen, Norway. She is currently undertaking a PhD in Artistic Research at the Faculty of Fine art, Music and Design, (KMD) at the University of Bergen (UiB), where she researches new ways of exploring personal relations to politics and approaches to political elections. Rundberg holds a Master’s Degree in Visual Communication Design (2016) from Bergen Academy of Art and Design (now KMD at UiB). In her critical design practice, she uses visual communication, often book design, publishing and printed matter, as a way to explore human relations to abstract institutions such as the State, the Archive, and specific historical events. From 2014 she has been closely connected to the self-publishing community in Bergen and involved in organizing Bergen Art Book Fair (BABF). Between 2015 and 2018 she was the running the risograph workshop at KMD. Rundbergs works are represented at MoMA Library, KORO (Kunst i offentlige rom), Linköping’s Municipality, and Region Östegötland in Linköping.
