Wow! Of 6992 entries in this years Red Dot Awards we were one of the 7 that was awarded a Grand Prix! So proud of this project (Fading Stories) and everyone involved. Thanks to Raoul Wallenberg Academy, Sanna Sjöswärd and all the incredible survivors who made this possible.

Statement by the Jury

The way in which the reduced black-and-white design concept of this exhibition plays with the meaning of blacked out content in the quotes from Holocaust survivors is downright outstanding. Just like active remembrance can fade away, so can text quickly become meaningless or corrupted. Featuring blacked out text as QR code effectively turns the hidden words into a key to knowledge – another clever congruence of idea and content, which communicates the topic in a shocking yet extremely successful manner.
