About me,
Camilla Diedrich:
I grew up in Sweden, my parents got three daughters and soon my father went off to tour with a circus as a chauffeur and my mother went to artschool where at the age of three I was live model for the artist students.
My first proper job was as at a postoffice at the age of 14 and I have been working ever since,
besides a break where I earned a Master of Fine Arts, MFA, from University College of Arts, Crafts and Design in year 2000.
I am particulary interested in decor as this has been a human language since we lived in caves and made scratchings in red ochre on the walls, it is the oldest human records known to exist.
Awarded Working Grant by The Arts Grants Committee, Excellent Swedish Design,

Special Mention Award at The XXI Compasso d'Oro 2008, Italy. Compasso d'Oro is the most authoritative award in the section in Europe, established 1954.
