Daniel Fountain: Queer Crafts, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

"Through an analysis of work made from textile, ceramic, metal, paper, wood and glass, this book explores how contemporary creatives identifying as LGBTQ+ use a range of craft materials and processes to explore their identity. Craft methods offer fertile ground for exploring themes of queerness because of their longstanding gendered associations, physical malleability, metaphorical capaciousness and craft's historic position as an 'amateur' form of making. Featuring case studies and illustrations of the work of well-known and emerging figures such as Athi-Patra Ruga, Nicki Green, Rose Schmits, Khairullah Rahim, Troy Michie, Tim Tate and Hamad Butt, this book sheds an important light on contemporary crafts"-- Provided by publisher.
