Malin Heyman

Malin Heyman currently leads the artistic research project "Unworlding the Anatomical Theater in Uppsala" funded by the Swedish Research Council, at KTH School of Architecture. Educated at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art in New York, United States, and the Royal Institute of Art in Stockholm, she is a founding partner of the Stockholm based collaborative practice AT - HH and practices architecture within the frameworks of built work as well as speculative projects through exhibitions and publications. AT - HH’s work investigates the role of architecture in identity-forming processes in relation to the central role of fiction in the production and representation of architecture.

Malin Heyman has worked on built projects in Sweden, the US and Switzerland. Her work has been exhibited at Swedish Centre for Architecture and Design, Venice Biennale, Royal Institute of Art in Stockholm, Archivo in Mexico City, Royal Academy of Spain in Rome, SPARK in Malmö, Färgfabriken and Liljevalchs Konsthall in Stockholm, and Proyector in Mexico City. Her work as writer, editor and architect has been published in journals and books such as Arkitektur, A+U, Architectural Digest, Rotunda (Trema förlag), Architectural Dissonances (L’Internationale), LOBBY Magazine, New Generations, A.MAG and Arkitekturtidskriften KRITIK. Prior to founding AT - HH, while employed as project architect, projects managed by Malin Heyman were nominated for the Architects Sweden awards Kaspar Salin and Villapriset.

In 2024, AT–HH was awarded the Young Swedish architecture prize. In the same year, the Editions QNDMC/GRAM publication “Heyman Hamilton 05” featuring the work by AT–HH was published.

For their current work researching reproductions of whiteness in the reconstruction of the anatomical theater in Uppsala, AT - HH has received funding from the Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts for the project "The Atlantean Theater, Two Presidents and an Anatomical Capital", and a project grant from the Swedish Arts Grants Committee for "Restaureringsprotokollen 1947-1955: Anatomiska teatern i Uppsala". In 2023, this research was awarded a 3-year artistic research project grant by the Swedish Research Council/Vetenskapsrådet.

Malin Heyman has taught architectural design at KTH School of Architecture since 2015. Together with Anders Berensson, she led studio "Out of Practice" 2020-2024.
