Annika’s first creation had the form of a jukebox or fantasy beetle of art deco vintage, 2.65 metres high in shiny sunny-yellow tiling.

The Swedish media loved it and it also won first prize for the best work by a student from the seven Swedish schools of design.

Built free-hand, as a self-supporting sculpture. Made in natural earthenware brick-clay, white slip, glazed and electric-fired.

Degree Show at Röhsska Museet and Läckö Castle. Winner of ‘Embryo of the Year 1997’ elected from the 1997 body of Swedish design and crafts students.
