2019

2019 was the third edition of Mono Festival and the first time the festival took place under its own separate non-profit organisation. For its third edition, the festival expanded to take place over two days and across three major arts venues in Lund, Sweden. 2019 audiences experienced a mix of intimate one-to-one performance encounters, took part in a one-to-one VR installation, and participated in a video art work that was created and screened at Skissernas Musuem during the festival. 2019 also saw the successful return of the popular 'Artist Speed Date' event. Mono 2019 was supported by Lunds kommun and in partnership with Lunds konsthall, Stenkrossen, and new partner, Skissernas Museum. Artists at Mono 2019 were: Anna Thunström (SE), Auðunn Kvaran (IS), Axel Berger (SE), and Sara Lindström (SE).
