Swedish born artist and architect Frida Foberg earned her MA in Architecture from Aarhus School of Architecture in 2013. In 2014 she became a Fellow of Arts Letters & Numbers. Through her work experience from Fantastic Norway, Vamos Architects and Acconci Studio, she had grown an interest in the interaction of people, spaces and stories which she brought with her when taking on the role as associate director at Arts Letters & Numbers in 2017. A position she held until she left Arts Letters & Numbers in 2020.

During her time at Arts Letters & Numbers she worked closely with the regional, as well as, international communities, established a residency program, developed educational programs with regional schools, collaborated in workshops with UNICEF, CAFA, Cooper Union, Education Reimagined, Iowa State University, National Coalition Building Institute, and she continues to develop and strengthen the core mission of the organization.

While developing educational programs, it became evident that food and ways of eating held a significant role in Frida’s artistic practice. Her interest in social awareness lead to research and explorations around the question: Why are We Eating Together. A question that has been explored through workshops, exhibitions, performances, writings and drawings. Not only has her work been crucial to the many programs of Arts Letters & Numbers, her work has been brought to Berlin – Germany, Toronto – Canada, Hillier – Canada, Denver – CO, New York – NY, Albany – NY, Averill Park – NY and West Stockbridge – MA.
