. Ramona Myrseth grew up in a multicultural community in Northern Norway. Her childhood was strongly shaped by winter, spectacular landscapes, and natural phenomena such as the northern lights and the midnight sun. Growing up in the Arctic had a major influence on her work. Ramona Myrseth combines these influences with a modern aesthetic. As a local Sami designer and storyteller, she explores materials, textures, contrasts, cultural and personal memories and tries to navigate between different perspectives with a needle and thread as a tool. Her hand-knitted works are made to wear in the arctic landscape. The balaclava cap with mouth and nose cover was created as an homage to the ski mask and the mountain culture in the north. It should warm and in view of the current situation also protect. It is complemented by a short sweater that conveys a fashionable note. At the same time, it is Ramona Myrseth's concern, inspired by the Arctic landscape and the Sami philosophies, to remind people that they have to adapt to the rules and limits of the landscape and accept that they cannot rule and control nature.
