September Sessions is a four-day art festival in Stockholm, initiated in 2023 by Index – The Swedish Contemporary Art Foundation and Mint. While celebrating the diversity of Stockholm’s art scene, September Sessions also serves as a platform for independent curators. Each edition features a specially curated program by an invited curator, temporarily activating the city through projects presented at unique locations. This year’s curated program leans into emoness, into teenage gloom and late-night moods where intensity, irony, and quiet despair blur together. It stays with that unstable mix of not taking things too seriously while feeling everything too much. Vampires and zombies drift through it, alongside more ethereal presences that soften the edges, holding together fear, humour, pleasure, and a lingering melancholia.
